these heaters have a pan on the bottom you fill with fuel, you lite it with a newpaper touching it to the wick inside the pot. it has a tube that goes back down from the side of the stack into the oil pot and it has vents along the stack.

Try eBay, we got our kerosene heater off of eBay. It puts out a quite a bit of heat and is even vent free, making it safe for indoors.

Look for a website called Survival Unlimited. They have a lot of stuff about kero heaters and how to use and maintain them.

Go to a farm and tractor supply house and ask for a ''smudge pot''. However it's a nasty smelling thing and is way too dangerous to use indoors.

Depending upon where you live, you should be able to get one from your local farm supply store. Here in central Illinois, Farm Supply Company has them for about $100. Stock #3070559. Please be very careful if you plan to use it in a living space as they do give off carbon monoxide.

Most construction sites I have been on use 250,000 BTU propane, a lot more heat than kero.
