I just got my SF120 heater last week and i'm in love. Works great in an older shop where you may have a little bit of a draft. Will also be usuable for most people with a non insulated shop as it can grow with you and be used once you do have an insulated shop.
that's awesome! I'm super impressed by this heater!! Never worry about frozen pipes in the shop again!!
Thank you so much - we appreciate our customers and are proud build these in the USA. From our own welders down to the paint.
How many of you are like me and hollered in your head, "Close the door." LOL
You are right about fumes giving you a headache. I have a propane torpedo heater that puts out a lot of heat but the fumes make the shop unusable.
You are right - that's the benefit of SunFire and why our heaters aren't $300. They solve a BIG problem and it can't be done cheap to get good results for the many many years these can last.
I've used diesel torpedoes that had no fumes other than start up . I've used them in my home . If it smells you need to tune it
That's really cool. I would recommend a CO detector though just to be on safe side.
I'm sold 👌
dude! That heater is awesome!
@@StoneyRidgeFarmer I believe it
That is one BIG Buddy Heater!
That is totally awesome. Ye beat the snot out of that thing and it's still running!
Awesome heater
Boy, I'm for sure going to get that same heater for my shop/man cave. We are just finishing all the exterior steel install, now to work on the front stone work.
nice! You'll love it!
We look forward to being there for you whenever you need us, and for the life of the heater.
We're I work we've got the same heater they work great Sunfire are good heaters
You should put big ass fans on your ceiling too push that hot air down and the cool air up in the summer.
The drop test to assess quality. Nicely done and it survived. Directional infra-red heat but heated floors would be nice. Thinking an oil burner convection heater would be more akin to a space heater but it's all about venting. Make sure there's carbon monoxide alarms installed in lower dead air spaces.
heated flooring in the area that I live doesn't make any sense....13 degrees at night and 46 in the shop, we just don't get cold enough
Good afternoon Josh, that is one heck of a heater! Not only can it heat the mega shop, but slap a pair of wings on her and you have a private jet😂.
bhahahha
I like it. Probably works to a degree, even if pole barn isn't insulated. ha
I WANT THAT SHOP ‼️‼️‼️🤣
Josh,you need to have a comfortable place to work during the winter months and not have to worry about things freezing up and having to replace expensive equipment 👍😮😊❤
Nice thanks god bless
nice heater
Thanks great video. 👍❤️
Glad you enjoyed it
thats awesome. im going to start building my shop next spring.... and being in minnesota, this might be a good solution for my heat.
That's a perfect application for these heaters. :)
Definitely gonna need some big ass fans in your shop. All that heat is going to be at the ceiling
a nice little steady breeze to push that heat down and you’ll be in business.
service is great also
It still puts moisture into the air. If building is tight, it gets real wet over a winter’s use.
not with a dehumidifier running all the time, you can see it in the background brother..I totally agree!
WoooooooHeeeeeeeHeeeeeeeee!!!!Alright!!!!🤗🤗🤗
Like a jet engine! LOL! ☺👍
Regards to heat dispersion, have you considered installing ceiling fans?
Cool. Some ceiling fans would certainly help keep heat down.
Ceiling fans, a must
Hey Josh thank you for the video great heater but if you're not in the shop I would just use the heat strips that you put on the pipes and then put some insulation on it and it will cost you a lot last two run woo
Oh I'm totally going to get one of these for my barn/shop!! Thank you soo much!
My insurance said they'd drop me in a second if I put a wood stove in there! They said something about no open flame like a wood stove or pellet stove. I asked why and they said because the space will have gas fumes and other flammables while working on stuff! Grrrrr
My insurance broker told me the same thing and he asked who I knew with a wood stove in their garage, barn or shop. I told him pretty much everyone on youtube and everyone on message boards I go to have them!
FARM BUREAU! All day every day!! Check into farm bureau they insure "country folks" v/s the insurance companies that want you to put a helmet on your kids when they get out of bed in the morning.....look into it...I dropped state farm the week we moved to the country for that very reason
farm bureau guys!! Wood stove is no issue
Thank brother I'll see what they can do for me here in WA state!
Awesome - we will be there when you need us and look forward to giving you the best heating experience possible.
I want to know more about that steel workbench with all the vices’ on it. Where is it from? How much does it cost? Why are there so many vices’ on it?
Nice freeze dryer
My shop is coming in January its a 40x100 looking for a heat source. Thanks for the info its just a little pricey at the moment due to most funds going into the building
It really depends on what fuel source you have.
buy once, buy right and take care of it for a lifetime...even a wood stove is gonna cost ya over $2k to buy and install...and that's probably what a used one would cost to install
Excellent!! Amazing!!
Great video I will be checking out Sunfire. I noticed you have no ceiling fans
That would be pretty sweet with 3 or 4 ceiling fans
working on that for sure my friend! WOoooooO!
i have won the and the custom service is great
Hi Josh, if you are going to turn the side of the shop into a home did you plan ahead and insulate the floor?
in NC insulating the floors doesn't make much sense...it just doesn't get cold enough
I like new it makes me dizzy Oooo.
Similar (or the same I’m not sure) are used at the gate on bases in Alaska for the soldiers to stay warm outside while checking IDs and paperwork.
Yes - they are the same ones!
id like to see a test with both CARBON MONOXIDE and CARBON DIOXIDE detectors running side by side. SUNFIRE is a step these old forced air heaters. for $1500 to almost $3000 they better be good.
Need a Big Ass Fan to get that heat down
Those are $2500... diesel is 138,000BTU(40kwh)/gal which is $4. 15 cents per kwh is common for electric, add in the cost for buying a good humidifier so everything doesnt rust, and the electricity for that. Plus the hassle of refueling, dealing with carbon monoxide, proper ventilation, fans to move air, fire risk, and insurance issues. AND this only works for heating not cooling.. why?!?
Get yourself a 36BTU ductless minisplit for $2000. It has a heat pump so its usually 3-6x as efficient as just using the electricity with an electric heater. If you have a smaller garage, workshop you can get by with even just a $700 minisplit. It takes a couple hours to install, and the lines are precharged.
What you think about I got few designs that would top those...
Now you need a Big Ass fan, maybe 2 of them to move that heat around.
DOes the shop have styrofoam insulation under the concrete slab ??
What type of maintenance must be performed to keep it efficient and not burn dirty?
Radiant with solar would of been an ideal initial solution for that building
Radiant solar floor heat in NC isn't something that's very common simply because we don't get the extreme temps my brother. If were in colorado...heck yes...I'd have a geothermal floor heating system...but here the temps outside can be 9 degrees and the shop is 46 without any heat. It all depends on your location my friend...we determined it wouldn't be cost effective
Love the idea of little to no fumes. Were you able to get us a coupon code? Thanks for sharing this!
I wasn't but I'll keep on trying!
how does the unit differ from ild school salimanders? is it work on the same basic way? do a video on how it works. great channel
It "clean burn" technology....I'll try and reach out to the company to see how it works..great idea
These work different than those heaters. Behind the front "dome face" that looks like a glowing "sun", there is a cone shaped cylinder and inside that chamber is where the fuel is circulated in a vortex like a tornado and is sup so perfectly that it burns every droplet of fuel to leave no residue, smell, or fumes behind. The flame heats up the front dome that glows bright orange red that makes the infrared radiant energy to warm objects and people in front of it without having to blow air.
I say I say son it makes it toasty, Look at me when i'm talkin boy,
Hot Hot Hot
Almost forgot. Mine makes no fumes after startup. I just adjusted the air flow to run a tad leaner to get the cone hotter.
Does the shop come with the heater ?
That looks like a great heater why did it need the extension cord?
A few reasons. Although it doesn't blow air, it uses a blower to spin the fuel, run the pump and some controls and safety features.
Says good for interior commercial use, so I'm assuming this is very loud. How loud? How many decibles when cranking out heat?
not very loud at all...about 2 times as loud as a box fan you might put in a window, most certainly not as loud as those propane cheaper ones
People can stand right next to the heater and clearly hear every word without needing to raise your voice. No need to wear earbuds to hear music, can easily listen while playing music or podcast in a shop.
@@SunfireheatersWill you produce a smaller unit for tiny cabins? Have a 16'x24' cabin, and these unit would be overkill. But there is a demand for smaller spaces.
what kind of safety devices does the unit have? i had a wood burning stove but my insurance woudn't cover me working on rv's in my shop with it. this would work great to get me started until i can get a ceiling and insulation and a furnace
I have 2 heater designs that can top those
Short idea :
Toast a hot dog & a bun with it just ASMR goodness
I would like to buy some beef How do I go about that?
God bless
we've got a co-op setup on patreon.com/stoneyridgefarmer we should be shipping beef later this month...just butchered 3 cows a few months ago...joining the co-op lets you be the first to know when we have beef available
👍🏻💯🇦🇺
Ceiling fans will help keep your fuel consumption down
Carbon monoxide makes up anywhere from 2% to 12% of diesel exhaust gases.
Josh, why didn't you buy a outside wood fire boiler to heat your shop building?
2 of my neighbors have them and they totally suck!!! They eat wood like it's nobody's business, heated floors in NC are a waste of time and money because we don't get that cold out. Both my neighbors go through about a truck load of wood every week/2 weeks to run a darn water heater and heat 1500 sq ft homes. Smoke, trash, ash, mess and time....there's a reason why there are abandoned outdoor wood furnaces all over the internet for sale...they are simply a pile of work and expense to spend more burning wood that you'd spend running with electric or gas, however...I might eat those words one day if we can't get electricity lol
@StoneyRidgeFarmer Hi Josh... I was just wondering. I know another RUclipsr and with his, he Phil says up and he said every couple of days he's gonna fill his up.. Okay, II see what you're saying. I'm just a comment or a suggestion that I thought about. Thanks for answering it. You have a good day, Josh.
Did you say butcher shop? Wish you were closer! Nothing better than grass fed beef.👍
patreon.com/stoneyridgefarmer you can join the co-op and when the beef is available we'll ship to you. Hoping to start shipping by the 15th of this month
👍
I believe it has a catalytic feature, making it less likely to put off carbon monoxide
No catalytic feature, But it's not like an engine, we simply circulate the fuel so perfectly that it burns every droplet clean without leaving particles behind that escape that can cause that, and the smell.
What thermostat do you recommend for this unit? Thx
I havn't installed one yet, but basically any wall thermostat is supposed to work
Do you live in a barn?? Shut the garage door the heats on!
lol thanks dad ....I can hear him saying that now lol
@StoneyRidgeFarmer that's what I heard the second you walked away from the door...My dad yelling at me
What insurance do you have…my insurance said no way to a wood stove in the shop or garage.
Hey where did you get the heater? I’ve called five dealers and nobody has carried it in years. I’m in South Carolina.
You can purchase this online at many retailers.
How do you get 8500 sq feet my numbers don’t add up can you please let know thank you
For $3000 dollars you could have put a traditional heating system in with the option for A/C
Looks like a nice heater but I don’t think I could afford $4.00 an hour.
to run heat in a large space like this isn't too bad my friend..that's one heck of a heater
At 2300.00 it’s real pricey
yep, good quality American products cost a bit more my brother
Does this heater produce moisture like the propane heaters?
No it does not. It will produce "some" moisture since it burns fuel and oxygen but less moisture than those other heaters.
$3k for this seems a bit steep.
What's the difference between this and the regular "torpedo heaters" that can also run on kerosene or diesel? (Besides the $2,500 difference, that is)
This one is $2,395 but these have no smell, no fumes, and are more quiet. They are also built to last about 7-10 years longer than a torpedo heater. we understand it's not for everyone, but for those using it for their commercial shop or farm, many love it since they no longer have to smell the fumes and get headaches. We also build in the USA instead of China which comes at a cost as well.
$$ OUCH $$- $2,400 heater!!!
Worth the price... I own VAL 6 heater for over 12 years absolutely the best!
a new wood stove to heat this kinda space costs about $5k....buy cheap, it will be in the dumpster in 5 years my friend....buy quality, clean burn....made in USA and you'll have a lifetime piece to use forever
@@StoneyRidgeFarmer- Buy once, Cry once! 🙂
@@StoneyRidgeFarmer Absolutely, with proper maintenance, these can last many years. And it sure beats dealing with headaches from the fumes.
Just drive in the shop and leave the door open and let out all your heat………..come on man!
that shop holds heat pretty good my friend ...but remember, what we do in videos is often not what we'd do in "real life" sometimes we gotta do something that isn't that bright to show something fun and cool
They look nice but man that' pricey
lifetime tool my friend
Holy Jesus
Brutha love the videos but that heater is less efficient than the old space heater i have. Its a 240k btu. And it only uses about 4gl in a full work day.
The tank size was off as it's 14 gallons so this goes through .85 gallons per hour so about 6.8 gallons in a work day. That's not as low as 4 gallons of diesel but maybe not as much as some assumed.
Two hunters have died from Mr buddy heaters this year in the deer stand
yep....carbon monoxide is bad stuff!
One was carbon monoxide and the other was a stand fire
How much fuel does it burn in 1 hr.
.85 gallons of diesel per hour and .78 using kerosene.
Josh i hate to say this but i really don't believe you built the shop big enough 🤷♂️
shew...once I get it organized I hope it's big enough lol
Your "Fair Share" comment struck a nerve, I live in a CO county ran by sheep herders and ranchers, the county contains the #2 natural gas reserve in the nation as well as a healthy oilfield that produces a fair amount of oil. Whenever Oil & Gas attempts to do anything 100 layers of expensive permits / inspections and fines are common. On the other end of the county if a ranch building is needed just pay a nominal fee and get a "good luck with the build call us if you have question's".. No inspections ever unless he wants to stop by and chew the hay with you about hunting on their land..
The "Greedy" end of the county goes out of it's way to make the O & G Co's and their employees pay their "Fair Share" they even coined that phrase for the "stick it to em grin" they share with one another at the local shops.. So if you dislike your heating / fuel / food bills thank the local, state & federal gvt (They make more profit from the energy than the energy companies do).
What i pay for a 2,000 sq ft shop on a 100 x 120 ft lot Is the same as what they pay on 2,500 acres of prime farm land with buildings. they inform me it's commercial so you get charged more.. Well the same rate should apply too you as your making money off your land / buildings as well (most sell expense hunting or offer the pay too play a cowboy vacation packages) some even get federal farm subsidies thrown in on top of that...
Like you I'm smart enough to know where food comes from how it's delivered and what heats the houses & factories and what's on the backside of the light switch. Grazing on public lands drastically reduces wild fire hazards. But why do we penalize productive people and the Companies that pay good wages, while rewarding the lazy? I guess I just said my "Fair Share" on the subject.
PS
I Love you content, keep it up..
Oh and rather it be code enforcement or law related the "We got a call" must be properly vetted and documented prior to the response. The next time that is thrown at you ask for the caller ID log number on the complaint.. Most of the time it is "Little Lies" which they are allowed to tell to gather information..
That thing is very expensive, over 2K (close to 3K)
Ever feel like the things you own end up owning you? That’s a lot of stuff.
dude! Amen!!! But it sure is nice to get what you need without going out to the store! Just wait this place is gonna be awesome!!
If my math is right 80 bucks a day to run it?
If that's your math, however....ya don't need to run it constantly, we just heated the shop to 66 degrees in 1 hour...then shut it off and got to work.....so we're talking about $5 right? That's how my math works out
@@StoneyRidgeFarmer I just stopped at the C-Store and gave the clerk $22 for $12 worth of gas.. The senior clerk had to inform her the change would be a $10 bill.. To think "They Vote" is very concerning..
FYI - the size of the tank in the video is slightly off. It's a 14 gallon tank and runs through less than a gallon per hour - .85 gallons per hour using diesel .78 on kerosene. So if someone runs this 24 hours a day non stop, it may be about $80 per day but a 10 hour day non-stop is closer to $34 or so.
Just picked one of these up can’t wait to try it out in my shop
It still has to be putting carbon monoxide in the air
no sir...it's clean burning technology
We get this quite a bit. The carbon monoxide from other products comes from an inefficient burn. Our technology burns every droplet of fuel without allowing fuel particulates escape that are not fully burned. The burner must be kept properly tuned and the fuel needs to be clean and not dirty of course.
@@Sunfireheaters will these run on Jet A?
Carbon monoxide is produced when the fuel / are ratio is not efficient. I have a wall heater in my sun room. When it first lights up, it doesn't burn very clean. It produces flickering orange flames. Once it gets going, it's only crisp blue flames with an occasional orange flicker. That's a sign that it's working efficiently and not producing carbon monoxide. I'm no expert, but I assume there's still a very small amount of byproducts, but the amount is negligible.
100% does. Don’t be dumb like this guy
112 x 50 shop = 8500 sq ft Huh ?? Is it 5600 or 8500 please explain or just a bit rough on math Josh beauty shop tho
As expensive as diesel is now , Not happening.. I rather use waist oil heater . Easy to build and cost is zero for fuel.. Can heat the entire place remarkably with no fuel cost at my place, and it will have no emissions inside.
SF estimates don't mean anything especially considering cieling height, insulation, compartmentalization, and air exchange. Look at BTUs and understand the characteristics of your space.
you say 8500 sq foot, but if you multiply 112 x 50 that comes to 5600 sq foot.
Landa makes a better version for less money. 😮
Interesting....I just checked their website...."CALL FOR PRICE" hmm....not sure but I didn't see that MADE IN USA sticker on it either....seems tough to enter all of my info just to research pricing lol...I guess if ya gotta ask, ya cant afford it right 🤑
Amazing but way expensive
Nice but $2,500.00 is a lot to think about.
how much does a good wood stove cost? Man...I know it's expensive...and there's some good ol cheap chinese garbage out there that will heat a space, but having the peace of mind of a quality product, made in USA that will last a lifetime v/s choking on the fumes of a cheap heater is priceless
Dumping a $3,000.00 heater off a loader to see if you can break it is pretty dumb ass......but did enjoy the video.
He paid $0 for it and gets paid by views, so it's actually pretty smart.
I just listened to your freedoms comment only to have my reply blocked......
Too noisy
shop my brother, not a library
