    From Hipers’ own web site: “There is no need for a separate flue tube or ventilation pipeline when you use Hipers heaters in indoor areas, such as halls, garages, PVC tents, tool rentals, storage halls for heavy equipment, or even churches. The heater does not emit any smell or smoke.” It’s the #1 selling point for these heaters.
    I’m guessing the smell comes from using the heater for the first time, which is why they recommend you start up the heater outdoors for the first time.

    We used our old K1 furnace from our home to heat our garage to wrench on vehicles. We piped the exhaust through a window and tapped into the K1 tank that goes to the house. Best damn garage heater I've ever had. After years of smelling colors after a long night of wrenching with the old salamander heaters it's definitely an upgrade 👌 Congrats on that bad boy!!!!

    Dear Mr. Ants Pants,
    After watching yet another fascinating video about the installation of this life-enhancing heater, I took a curious dive into the comment section. Naturally, I expected everyone to be as thrilled for you as I was, but lo and behold, it seems many folks-myself included-had some unsolicited "advice" to share.
    The main gripe? The exhaust. While the heater itself looks like a well-built, efficient little workhorse, a good chunk of its heat is waving goodbye as it zips out the exhaust. Why, you ask? Condensation. If they tried to cool the exhaust too much, water would condense in the pipe and potentially leak back into the unit. And let's face it, no one wants a soggy heater-it’s an engineering migraine waiting to happen.
    But fear not, there’s a hack for that! I'd recommend grabbing yourself an exhaust pipe heat exchanger with a fan to reclaim that escaping warmth. Trust me, it'll make a world of difference in how quickly your shop feels like a toasty paradise. Plus, it's a win-win-less heat wasted and more coziness for you.
    Cheers!

    A discharged battery will freeze as well. If your battery froze in a discharged state it is totally toast. Been there... You could make a very long exhaust pipe routed around inside the shop before the exit to further reduce exhaust temperature and release more heat into the shop. I lived in Alaska for 3 years. Became a little obsessed about heat!

    As far as the old diesel air heater, undersized is undersized, but I would put it on the floor or have the return air inlet piped to near the floor. Heat rises. If you pull air in from the floor (create lower pressure), it will pull the heat down in your shop. I imagine you have a big temperature difference floor to ceiling running it in that configuration.

    To get a good line up I like to use the hole saw after the first hole is drilled. I remove the pilot bit and insert an aircraft bit (extra long) then square up the holesaw in the hole without the motor attached to your satisfaction. Now with the long drill bit in the motor you have a guide to drill a pilot hole in the exterior wall that will be pretty accurate. Most hole saws I have take a 1/4" (6mm) pilot bit so the same size aircraft bit will reach 18" and longer ones are available if needed. Of course you can take a drill bit and weld a piece of drill rod to it at whatever length you wish to make your own.

Yea there is a hassle to get the center out of the holesaw, but alot easyer than to use a standard dept holesaw with all hassel with chisel away the center.

I would think the air gap in double wall pipe would be far better than insulation at keeping the temp down. You could just add a few spacers in the pipes you have. Great entertainment. Thanks!

    make a heat exchanger and put it above the heater with a fan blowing through it that will lower exhaust to nothing at the wall and give more heat in the shop good vid as usual.

      Just don't go too low or you'll have condensate forming, you want to aim for a flue temp of about 120 in my experience with a diesel fired heater to avoid condensation.

    If a location all the way across the room would work for the heater, the added pipe would allow the pipe to cool off more before it goes through the wall. Might help gain some efficiency, as the heat from the pipe has more length to transfer to the air in the room.
