It's a gas heater panel with a hood around it. I am using it n a 4 car garage that has exposed rafters. I hung it about about 8ft high and has about 15 in of Clarence above to what I hung it from Works great. Beater then light based heaters. I looked at the ducted heaters and I did not want to go thru the roof. It's perfect for my use

I have this system in my insulated garage and I put a 10x10 vent near where I hung it. Also I put a carbon dioxide detector to be safe. Heater works great!!

It is a ventless system but you need to operate it in a room that is vented. Since it is using oxygen from the room for combustion it will deplete a sealed room of oxygen.

yes, it needs to be vented somewhere. You could purchase an awesome high-powered fan and it would cool as well and not need vented.

There is no ventillation. I do not consider the finish to be brushed nickel....more like stainless steel.

Yes. Unit is mounted on the wall and a hole needs to made through to the outside so you can run the connections to the outside unit. There are several good videos online for installing ductless cool/heat systems. This unit can heat and cool a room, just select the option you want on the remote control.

I just bought this unit and set it up. My recommendation is not to purchase this one but one that has venting out the front bottom. This unit is meant to have open free standing in a room. Under counter types vent air from front back out where ever but not pulling air from back and vent to the back like this one does. Hope this helps.

Yes it is vented. In the front it there is a mesh window. Even if you put the cover down, there is plenty of air flow.

It does not need to be vented outside per say. It can be ran in a closed room. However it is much more efficient when it's venting outside.

No, it is a vent free heater. However, it should not be used in a small room that is closed up.

You would need to run a exhaust duct think it is four inch. It doesn't need to be insulated.

This excellent heater is vented. See details on Rinnai's website: http://www.rinnai.us/direct-vent-wall-furnace

Hi Tony, You cannot use PVC for venting this unit. It is required stainless 4 in ventilation duct for this tankless water heater. Good luck.

This unit is mounted outside the building so does not require additional venting other than what is right in the unit. There are also some units that are mounted inside the building, and those do require a vent to the outside.

Yes, you must vent it. An air conditioner that is not vented would just pump the hot air back into the room.

I have mine in a garage that's about 730 sq ft and it is not vented and there are no issues. The cost I have not calculated but it depends on how warm you want to keep the area. I just want to keep my garage around 45 degree so the water lines don't freeze.

Yes it must be vented. We went right through the wall (insulated pipe of course) but you can vent through the roof if you want.

Hi Monica, I think it vents from the bottom. I have mine installed in an outdoor kitchen in a brick enclosure. With the stainless steel fascia piece it is a very snug fit (almost no room between the sides), and it has no problem venting. I think that, since it is a refrigerator and not a freezer, it does not generate a lot of heat. Yours should be fine for an inside install without much clearance.

I have a 2 car garage with 2 garage doors that are insulated as well as all of the walls and attic. This unit works fine without any additional ventilation.
