Matt:

We thought you might have learned to say in places like Quartzsite this time of year. As they say" don't leave home without them" (LP regulators).

Needs a remote thermostat, but I did not purchase the one sold for this unit.  Instead, I bought a small, and inexpensive thermostat at Home Depot.

I was worried about using toe kick heaters due to some of the horror stories concerning overheating and fires.  This QTS-1100 unit will shut down if it over temps.  I would assume the likely cause of that is fan failure and the heating element gets too hot.

From personal experience with toe kick heaters, they are prone to pulling in dust at the floor level (pet hair comes to mind).  Some of the dust gets trapped and will be fodder for a fire.  That's why I wanted a unit that has a removable front cover so throughout the heating season I can get down on the floor with a vacuum to pull out the dust cooties.

Heaters may be one of the highest liability items.  Good ones will have some sort of safety shutdown.  I have two very old ones that have fusible links that "melt" at assigned temps.  These links do not reset, but require replacement.  Getting to them means opening the heater up so, hopefully, dealing with the problem.  Low air flow is likely to be the most common issue.  Toe kick heaters are really nice in how out of the way they are.  Unfortunately, the are great little vacuum cleaners also.
