Hello,

I assume you mean a mobile gas heater, be very careful buying secondhand.

I inherited one when I bought my apt. but it never seemed safe & fumes meant I always had to have a window open. I replaced it with a new one but after just over a years use, I turned it on one day and flames shot up from the back of the heater. Luckily I could push it out into the garden until someone took it away for me.!

It may have had a guarantee but I bit the bullet and upgraded my old aircon/heating system to a Panasonic inverter and never looked back, Ive been wary of those gas heaters ever since.

Cheers

Elinspain

Personally I would never buy a calor gas heater second hand.

They cost under 100€ new, so not expensive, I wouldn't take the risk of a second hand one being defective.
