Omni and Double clean models use 2 "C" size batteries and Radiant models use 2 "D" size batteries. The batteries are needed only to light the heater. The heater can also be lit by a match in case batteries are no good.

How long will the heater burn on a full tank of kerosene?
Our Omni models will burn for about 12-16 hours, our Radiant models will burn for 16-24 hours and our Double Clean models will burn for 15-23 hours. Burn time will differ depending on the quality of fuel used, room temperature and flame height.

Can I use red dye kerosene in my heater?
Yes, you can use dye kerosene, however we recommend using clear 1-K kerosene for assurance of fuel quality. If you use dye kerosene you should dry burn the wick more frequently (see owner's manual in regard to dry burning procedures.)
