    Hello, it is safe but there must be decent ventilation and air supply, a lot of moisture is generated from such stoves, which supports the fungus in the walls, so ventilation through an open window is a bit small;/

    Knock a hole outside the building, insert a fi 110 PVC pipe with a slope towards the outside, install a grille from the outside and insert a fan like a mechanical ventilation fan inside the pipe, you can buy it quite cheaply, and as a result you have forced ventilation.

    This is why the fan, to avoid blowing in, mechanically blows out, and the grille can be closed to suppress heat loss. I have the same thing in the bathroom, because of the steam from the bath, etc. I had to install it and I didn't have a ventilation duct, it works great for me.

    It was better to give a gas stove with exhaust to the chimney!!! Apparently, the portable ones have a catalyst (and this results in better combustion, and thus cleaner exhaust gases), but they are always exhaust gases. In general, if there is a gas installation, it was better to give some "goat" for natural gas (with connection to the chimney). Such stoves are produced, for example, by the Czech Mora as well as by private manufacturers.

    [quote="Zetrox00"........ Is this enough? Would it be worth persuading them to buy a carbon monoxide detector? However, for your own safety, should you give up the stove completely? I will only add that my father deals with gas installations and is licensed. That's the only reason I agreed to this particular form of heating.

    I have attached a photo of the stove:

    Yeah.
    Dad deals with the supply of gas, not its combustion process.
    He may not know that one of the products of the combustion process is carbon dioxide,
    sometimes carbon monoxide - lethal deadly :!: At the same time, oxygen is taken from the environment - the life-giving one. :idea:
    I would heed the warning on the stove. :cry:
    best regards

    If I comply, I will stay in the winter without any heating. I'm going to buy a sensor soon, so I think I'll be able to handle it somehow ;)


    In my opinion, it's better to sleep in two sleeping bags than with this stove in the room. This is equipment for occasional heating of gazebos, food trailers, etc. rooms. Requires constant, intensive ventilation to remove water vapor and combustion products. It is also not economical (it is cheaper to heat with electricity in the second tariff).

    This type of gas stove categorically does not to the sleeping room!
    This furnace uses the oxygen that is in the room for combustion. For example, gas boilers on average need 10 m3 of air for 1m3 of gas!!! so please imagine it.
    This type of device is a good solution, but in facilities such as shops etc. where there is a constant flow of people and doors are opened and closed all the time.

    Using this stove, you may not wake up one day.
    Life has the highest value!!!

    He will reheat this chop because the matter is about ventilation.
    Currently, there are cheap radiators with small ceramics and more expensive ones with large ceramics.

    Does it make sense to buy a cheap one with a small one or buy a used one with the whole front. I mean the afterburning of exhaust gases.
    It is to be heated in the garage as I do.

    Ventilation fi110 pipe at the top with a small chimney and air supply with two grilles from the bottom in the door on the opposite side, one with the surface of the chimney.

    I don't want to get poisoned and smell like in small shops, I don't care about some super warmth, but to break the temperature to those 7-9 degrees at 0-2 outside.
    Garage 6.5x4.5mx2.1 slightly insulated with polystyrene.
    Put it by the door by the air vent?
    Will it be safe to work in the canal?

Topic summary

The discussion revolves around the safety and practicality of using a Campingaz Katalytik gas heater to warm a 12m2 room, particularly in the context of ventilation and potential hazards. Users express concerns about the risks associated with gas stoves, emphasizing the need for adequate ventilation to prevent carbon monoxide buildup and moisture issues. Suggestions include installing forced ventilation systems and using carbon monoxide detectors for safety. Some participants argue against using such heaters in sleeping areas due to the combustion of oxygen and the production of harmful gases. Alternatives like gas stoves with chimney connections are recommended for better safety. The original poster shares their experience with the heater, noting issues with flame stability and the importance of ventilation, while also considering the practicality of their current heating solution.
