What happened is that Amerigas-Laconia had about three of these small Rinnai non-vented propane space heaters at drastically reduced prices and they said they would not install them. List price was $550, and I paid either 99 or 199, knowing there must be a reason why they were so cheap and when I asked why Amerigas was no longer installing them, was told they were not happy with them.

I recently sold it to an experienced installer, and the sale included the Rinnai owner's manual which instructs to keep a window open for the fresh air, and not to install it in a bedroom.
