Unvented propane heaters are not regulated by the Internaional Mechanical Codes. They come under the International Fuel Gas Code.

I don't think that anyone has said that they are illegal in NH, however they must be treated different then vented systems. The IFGC does not allow an unvented propane heater to be the sole source of heat regardless of btu's. I wonder why?
Unvented room heaters shall not be installed within occupancies in Groups A, E and I. I wonder why?
