Mr Heater Buddy Heater propane heater safe indoors emergency prepping hi it's AlaskaGranny Alaska
Prepper you can see I still have plenty of snow by my front door now in the last few weeks we had a
few earthquakes and if you've read anything about power outages and snow storms all over our country
having a way to have emergency heat is a great idea now the winter may be drawing to a close
but there's still going to be some cold weather times ahead and then winter's going to come again
so having a way to have heat for your family for your home in an emergency is always a great idea
my favorite portable heater is the Mr Heater Buddy propane heater because it's indoor safe propane
heater I've used these portable propane heaters before but I just got another one because
heck it's pretty cold here and it's nice to have an extra backup heater just in case you can see
when you open the box Mr Heater Buddy Heater is ready to go all you need to provide in addition
is the small green propane bottles if you read on the box it tells you what kind of hose you
could get so that you could attach it to a large propane bottle if that's something you want to do
and know that the propane bottles are small compact fit right in it but you need to
make sure that you have plenty of them they're going to last twice as long on low heat as they
do on high heat so pay attention to what you're using the amount of propane so that you have an
idea how many propane bottles you would want to have on hand if you've lived in somewhere
like Texas or Oregon that had week long power outages in 2021 you're going to want to have
plenty of these propane bottles on hand with the Buddy Heater should that be something that
you experience in the future you can see Mr Buddy Heater has a nice sturdy handle
on off switch if you look at it you press it down just slightly then you turn it to the pilot light
and then you can turn it to low or to high and there's a little click when it gets to
that place then when you want to turn it off you press it down a little and turn it back
you can read on the back Mr Buddy Heater has all of the lighting directions it has safety
instructions and it also gives you a warning about carbon monoxide and yes carbon monoxide is always
a threat anytime you have something burning inside you should already always have in your home a
smoke detector and a carbon monoxide detector they come as a combo you can have them in your house
ready to go but if you don't already have a carbon monoxide detector get one and store it with this
if you need to then you won't need to worry in an emergency that you don't have the correct supplies
if you look just below the on off switch it gives you a guide if you wanted to put it in
the bathroom you should probably only use Mr Heater Buddy on low because the room is small
and if you were to use Buddy Heater in a larger room you could use it on low or
high it's going to heat about 225 square feet so you need to pay attention one little Buddy Heater
is not going to heat up your entire home but Buddy Heater something you could certainly use
in a room where you're gathered together sitting on the couch or even in your bedroom so that you
make sure that you can stay warm if you have a power outage load shedding rolling blackout it's
extremely cold Buddy Heater are also great if you like to do outdoor living sports because
you can take Mr Buddy Heater ice fishing you can take them camping there's all kinds of outdoor
activities where a small portable heater can be really convenient you should take your Mister
Buddy Heater outdoors when you're putting on your propane tank or removing it because the twisting
and turning is a time when a little bit of gas could escape so it's just better to do it out
of doors to make sure that there is no threat of danger make sure you remove the black cap
then you want to swivel the nozzle out see how it can swivel out so you don't have to
try to tip Mr Heater Buddy over then you want to push the propane bottle up
and turn it clockwise
just until it's tight don't over tighten it
my Buddy Heater is all set up it's ready to use the canister has been installed
press down and turn it to pilot
then press it to click it and I can see the little flame is lit so now I can press and turn it to low
or to high and it's heating up the front element of Mr Buddy Heater and it's making it all nice and
warm so fast a lot of the heat rises and you can buy a fan that attaches on the top and the thermal
elements of the heat coming out turn the fan it doesn't require any kind of batteries or anything
rising heat from the heater will turn the fan and then it'll blow it out into your room
so that might be something you want to consider they're about 50 or 60 more dollars though
see the front of Mr Heater Buddy is all glowing it's all nice and toasty working great
if you're looking for a portable heater safe to use indoors in emergency check out the Mr. Heater
Buddy Propane Heater it's sturdy it's lightweight then you'll have the heat that you need
should you lose your power or your heat in an emergency situation
