This kerosene heater is designed and adjusted for kerosene use. Let me explain adjusted ; When tested for performance they use white or clear kerosene. Yes it will run on diesel, heating oil #1 heating oil #2 and or jet fuel. White or clear kerosene has a thinner viscosity than diesel, healing oil#1,2 The viscosity is a little thicker not by much but a little. There is a little bit of difference between pump kerosene and kerosene that you get off of the shelf in a 2 1/2 gallon container. The kerosene that you get off the shelf in a 2 1/2 gallon container is a little bit more refined than the pump kerosene from a gas station. Running this unit on white or clear kerosene starts and runs perfectly. If you want to run diesel and or heating oil #1,2 You will have to do the following for this unit to start properly at colder temperatures with out an E1 code. This is through trial and error on my part. BeFor I get into that this is what I did before I came up with this conclusion.
Yes unit is sluggish to start on diesel & heating oil, In colder temperatures of below 40°.
1, Replaced fuel filter twice
2 Replaced injector nozzle once
With no change in start up performance
After some research I found that there is an adjustment on the pressure regulator pump which needs to be adjusted to start and run better on diesel, and heating oil without the E1 code.
I have read all of the reviews on this unit, some have complained about a faulty thermostat which has nothing to do with the start up and running of this unit. Most have complained about the E1 code which is because the fuel that was put into the unit was not the fuel as tested(White or clear kerosene) however yes the unit will run on diesel and or heating oil , it will have starting issues at colder temperatures. But of course that defeats the purpose of having a heater you want a heater to start and run at colder temperatures so you can be comfortable.
Disclaimer: this is my own observation And test results, your results may vary. Proceed with caution!
On the back of the unit you have the digital display the temperature knob and the on off switch
There are four screws that hold the back portion of the heater which contain the LED display, temperature thermostat and on off switch. Remove four screws which part indented. Carefully pull the covering away there are wires in the back that you need to be careful about. Looking at the unit from back to front on the right hand side there is a pressure regulator, The pressure regulator has a thumb screw this is a lead and a test port . Next to the bleed screw there is another screw that is flush with the pump/regulator with a black Marker line drawn through the screw, that is The factory setting. If you were going to run diesel or heating oil in the unit. Put the appropriate amount of fuel into the unit. A minimum of 2 gallons. Plug-in unit with backing cover removed. Turn pressure regulator screw clockwise 1/4 turn (in) , turn unit on. Wait for unit to start , If the unit does not start right away turn screw in clockwise another 1/4 turn. This should be sufficient for the unit to start properly on diesel, and or heating oil.
This is my own observation. Your results may vary.
So far as of today (Nov 13 2019) his unit has started perfectly on 100% heating oil. In the past it was extremely sluggish or did not start at all on diesel oil or eating oil, it would only start on clear/white kerosene or pump kerosene.
Make this adjustment at your own risk.
I will give an update as the temperature gets colder. With a picture of the pump/pressure regulator adjustment screw.
Well, I'll tell you; this heater works really well. The customer support? Not so much.
As seen in the pictures, the back of the heater arrived damaged but I didn't notice it until after I used it for a few evenings and a family member pointed it out when filling up. At that time, it had a couple tanks of Kerosene and a couple more of diesel fuel burn through it. If anyone has smelled either of these fuels, they have a lingering smell even after empty and dried.
After noticing the damage, I called United Parcel Service and asked them what their policy is on shipping this product back, empty of course. They said due to fuel residue being inside the tank and lines, they would have to ship it back as a hazardous item and requested special drop off procedures due to such. This doesn't sound like a pleasant experience for a part that can probably be replaced.
My next step was contacting the seller. First they asked if I wanted to ship it back for a refund or a discount on the product. I said I didn't want to ship it back due to the hassle and asked about the partial discount. They then asked for me to provide pictures, the part number and the item in the part catalog.
They proceeded to offer me $15 off of a $400 heater. Even the part would cost more than that, shipped. That's a joke. An insult even. That MAY be fine if I was able to find the part, but NO ONE HAS REPLACEMENT PARTS.
This seems to be a manufacture problem since it's been reported by other buyers. And it wouldn't be a huge deal if you can find the replacement. But no one stocks it. Which leads to believe, its a manufacture defect.
Mind you, this is a needed part as it houses the temp sensor, temp adjust knob, the temp LED and directs airflow.
If I have to epoxy a $400 heater just to make it last a season, It needs more compensation than a 4.5% discount. That is unacceptable.
