In this video I'll go over how well this heater works for my shop. I'll also cover the dangers of using a Propane heater and how I prevented a disaster
I just hooked up a 30k btu duel fuel heater and the pilot lights will not stay lit after multiple tries and holding pilot control valve down for 60 secs. And still not staying lit. This means it will never light the bricks. It's going back to the store tomorrow.
Upon further reading and investigation, there is a valve under a small circular metal cover that has to be switched between NG or LP for proper operation. You also have to plumb gasline fitting into proper port on bottom, NG or LP which I had done. The heater seems to be working properly now.
I just ordered this same heater for my garage woodshop. Hope I don't have the problems you experienced but good to know about this video for reference just in case.
It's an awesome heater. Will run you out of my 24x16x8 non insulated shop. Just a quick visual inspection every so often for black soot build up around the internal regulator. Easy to see from bottom.

Ive had to purge mine for almost 3 mins before. Yes i timed it cause i was wondering why it was taking so long.
Ive also noticed it helps if the tank valve is open all the way
