For those with Little Giant heaters.

Have any of you guys that use the Little Giant # 3 heater as the source for heating the water found any issues with smog being created inside the cargo area. I have used for a few years a propane heater that in a very short time starting turning the walls of the van into a very depressing dark gray color, I had to open a hole on the roof and then run a flexible aluminum tube between the open vent on top of the heater and the roof vent, this solved the problem 100 %, but I see that the Little Giant heaters have a different vent and unless one is able to remove the hat it would be impossible to do the exhaust conversion I am thinking of.
And as long as we are on the subject, what do you think about this heater, any good or bad comments, I'd like to know as I may be getting a unit with one soon, thanks.

Though not as well known in Canada, and especially the GTA, these are the top selling propane heaters in our industry. They are very good, and I have owned several over my 28 years in this biz. But they work best only if properly vented through the roof of the van or box truck they are mounted in. The reason for that is two fold. To draw air into the combustion area at the bottom of them, you need to displace the air at the top of them. A vent to the outside is the best way to do that. The second reason is to remove the particulate particles out of the truck from the incomplete combustion that all fuel burning heaters experience. The consquence of not doing this is dark walls in the van.

Yes it does.
