Sorry, I forgot to mention that very important point. This Propane
heating stove is not vented to the outside. It's one of those advertised as so
clean burning that it can be safely used indoors without venting to the outside.

This is pretty tangentially related to handyman stuff, but follow me here.
Many blind handymen don't own vehicles. Often we may not know someone who
does own a proper vehicle, something useful like a pickup truck. But we
do know sighted people who drive.

My son spotted a sign the last time we were at Home depot about renting a truck
from them. It was about $20 for a little over an hour. I will be asking about
it the next time I need a load of something delivered from the home repair

The simple natural gas and propane burners usually have a screw to adjust the
gas air mixture. A repairman will adjust the screw for the best color of the
flame. A standard gas or propane furnace requires adjustment once a year. The
burner area also needs vacuuming once a year.
No adjustment
If the unit is still under warranty then return it for another unit.

Yes, I've also used the truck rental from Lowes or Home Depot, I forget
which. You get it for 75 minutes, and it is $19.95 plus taxes and fees.
The zip car concept seems a bit better for me because it offers a lot of
other options and is cheaper, assuming I use it more than a couple

Did you buy this heater new? Has it been burning dirty since new? If so, I
too think you should check the orifice. Could be that the orifice installed is
for natural gas which is largerthan that used for propane. If so, this could
cause the soot and smell you describe.
