Does the heater require electricity ( maybe for the fan?)
HI.. that is correct. The spark igniter is independent of the fan. Thanks.

Help me understand the product description suggesting it is ideal for use in a cabin and the red note at the bottom indicating it is for outdoor use only.
"This radiant liquid propane heater is the perfect solution for heating enclosed spaces like cabins."

Can this be used indoors?
Does this have the fan?
Does this come with fan?
Chauffer tentes,garages,cabines confort intérieur oui mais à utiliser à l'extérieur seulement écrit sur la boîte ???
There are 2 versions of model MH18B. The manufacturer clearly states on their website that it should have CONVECTION (fan) and radiant (no fan--Cdn version) heating. How can customers order the US version?

Great alternative to electric heaters
I bought this heater in order to warm up my generator that I keep in my shed. In the event of an emergency and you have no electricity, and it's -25 or so, you will have a hard time getting your generator to start. My only critique is that the fan should be stronger...it needs more output. Otherwise, it would have got a 5...
