Clean-burning kerosene heaters are perfect for warming up contained areas like garages, workshops and cozy nooks of your home. And while they offer certain advantages for the homeowner, kerosene heaters require a little more care than simply plugging in and flipping a switch. So be sure to keep kerosene fuel, wicks, pumps and other portable heater accessories stocked and ready for when the temperature drops.
Heater fuel comes ready for use in one-gallon jugs that are easy to store on a garage shelf or cabinet. You'll also find refined fuel options with a lower sulfur content that burn more cleanly to maintain indoor air quality. Choose from no-odor and no-dye options for more reliable performance that won't leave residue on the wick or lamp.
Along with fuel, you'll need kerosene heater wicks to get the warmth flowing. Look for cotton-fiberglass blends for slower-burning, longer-lasting wicks. But be sure to replace wicks on a regular basis to ensure a clean and well-maintained heater.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What Type of Fuel Is Kerosene?
A: Kerosene is a petroleum-based fuel that's more stable and less flammable than gasoline. It's been used in various capacities for centuries.
Q: Are Kerosene and Diesel the Same Fuel?
A: No, though they are both derived from petroleum, they differ in their carbon composition. This makes them suited to different uses. Diesel tends to be used for powering trucks, trains and generators, while kerosene is used as fuel for lighting, cooking, jet engines and heaters.
Q: When Should I Change my Kerosene Heater Wick?
A: How often you change your kerosene heater wick depends on how frequently you use your heater. But, it's a good idea to at least clean your heater and replace your wick at the end of the start of winter, so you start the cold season with a fresh wick and a clean machine.
