[quote=Anonymous]Get a kerosene heater, and 5-10 gallons of fuel to store for it. If you start it outside and let it get up to operating temp before you bring it inside, then take it back outside before shutting it off, you’ll eliminate most of the jet-fuel smell associated with them. We have one for emergencies and it’s been amazing during a couple extended power outages. It won’t keep the whole house at normal temps, but it’ll definitely keep it tolerable. The smell is the only downside, and you can’t leave it unattended, but it’s worth those associated hassles when it means your pipes won’t freeze. [/quote]
