Oil-fired Tent Heaters

Non-Powered Tent Heaters, The Pioneer tent heater is the perfect addition to a custom Exploration Tents insulated tent or portable shelter, one of several models of oil fired tent heaters. The models we offer range from 4,000 BTU to 55,000 BTU, enabling customers to meet their specific requirements. Pioneer Space Heaters are based on successful military tent heaters and barracks oil stoves, but these diesel heaters are now certified to CSA and UL standards. These natural draft heaters are rugged and extremely safe, easy to operate, and burn extremely clean with no smoke or smell. These non powered diesel space heaters are being used in mining camps, construction sites, agricultural buildings, homes and cabins, workshops and garages. The portability of these diesel heaters make them great as tent heaters for hunting, fishing and camping, as well as for temporary structures, trailers, yurts, etc. Diesel heat has great advantages over propane heat. It is much safer, easier to transport, readily available and has a higher relative BTU output. Diesel fuel offers nearly 140,000 BTU per gallon, compared to 91,000 BTU for propane. Even compared to wood stoves, these diesel space heaters are safer and much easier to use. First, wood is bulky and needs a good amount of storage space. Wood also must be properly prepared or dried to burn efficiently and this takes time as well as space. Wood fires also require some attention, stoking and periodic adjustment for good results and safety.
