If you are looking for a heater, I would recommend the patio heater I use. It is a 46,000btu patio heater I had purchased from Costco for $139 delivered. Lasts about 10 hours with the 20lb cylinder. Only downside is if it is windy, it obviously doesn't work nearly as well. All the heat radiates down, not up. Was initially concerned about the vinyl on the porch ceiling and ceiling fan blades melting. But has not been a problem, you can actually put your hand a few inches about the top and there is not much heat.
