Hi Everyone!
Just in time for winter!
In this video I show you how to replace the wick on a standard barrel type convection kerosene heater. I actually own three of these now and love them, they are easy to care for and are great for backup!
Enjoy!
Common brands include; Kero Sun, Kero Heat, Porta-Heat, Dyna-glow etc. But there are many, many of them out there! For my favorite see the link in ‘Resources’ below.
Resources:
Here is the place to get your wicks! –> The Wick Shop
If you need a heater here is my current favorite –> Kero Heat
There are many options, here is my video discussing them –> Backup Heating Options
CO detector (get these even if you don’t use this type of heater, they can save your life!) –> CO Detector
Don’t forget about Oil Lamps!–> How to use an oil lamp. Using an oil lamp is a rewarding and valuable skill!
I hope this helps to get those heaters out there ready for winter!
Cheers!
Willie

Thank you for this information. I ran into some problems last year and went with Kerosene heaters. But didn’t know all the maintenance I needed to – This video is very helpful and informative! Thanks!
You are so welcome!
I’m glad I could help!
Cheers!
