Low Maintenance and High Durability

The Martin Direct Vent Heater is renowned for its durability. Its robustness is reinforced by the heavy-duty grill, made from resilient die-cast aluminum.

This die-cast aluminum heavy-duty grill doesn’t just add to the unit’s toughness; it also enables better heat flow and keeps the unit’s back at room temperature, ensuring the wall behind remains clean. This design contributes to the heater’s low maintenance needs.

Die Cast Aluminum

Thermal Variations and Noise Pollution

The Martin Propane Heater:

  • Is designed to ensure the temperature remains constant throughout your living space

  • Effectively reduces thermal variations

  • Has an advanced modulating gas valve that adjusts the flame size and heat output

  • Maintains a steady temperature and comfort level

But it’s not just about maintaining a comfortable temperature. This heater also prioritizes tranquility in your living space. Thanks to a heavy-duty heat exchanger made from die-cast aluminum, the heater absorbs sound. It also features a blower fan with variable speeds, and operates quietly, particularly at lower settings, thus reducing noise pollution and contributing to a tranquil environment.

Where to use the Martin Propane Heater

Where is the Martin Propane Heater most useful? Its versatility makes it suitable for heating spaces such as cabins, garages, or workspaces. The 20000 BTU model can heat a room up to 800 sq ft.

The ease of installation and independence from electricity make the Martin Heater an excellent heating solution for cabins without reliable power sources. It’s also perfect for temporary dwellings or seasonal use in off-grid locations thanks to its portability and easy installation.

In regions that frequently experience power outages, the Martin Propane Heater is a reliable heating source that doesn't rely on electricity. And in larger homes, it can provide targeted supplemental heat in specific rooms, or areas like basements and garages. However, larger homes may require several Martin Propane Heaters due to their design for single-space heating if you would like to solely use them as your heating source.

Tips for Maximizing Your Martin Propane Heater's Performance

For the efficient operation and longevity of your Martin Propane Heater, regular maintenance is a good idea. Perform a check at least once a year, ideally before the heating season, and consider an additional check mid-winter.

Inspect the interior pipes, vents, and the rear unit openings for obstructions or residues and clean if necessary. Examine the pilot and main burner through the heat exchanger front glass for dirt or debris, and clean the inside with a vacuum or compressed air. Reassemble any disassembled parts after maintenance, referring to the installation guide if necessary for proper assembly.

With diligent care, a Martin propane heater can exceed its typical lifespan of 15 to 20 years.
