I have a Hotbox for sale. I purchased it secondhand, but now realise that it is FAR too big for my polytunnel (14ft X 28 Foot). I have not connected it up and checked that it will run, so can not guarentee that it works, and it will need plumbing work and a gas regulator.
The brochure says it will give frost protection up to 1000 Sq ft. BUT it does use a lot of Propane gas. Minimum consumption (pilot light) is 1/50 KG per hour and maximum consumption is 1KG per hour. So this is only for the REALLY serious grower with high value crops to protect.
I have the Installation and operating instructions.
I also have an empty 19 Kg propane gas cylinder.
If anyone is interested please send my a private message.
To modulators,
Are we allowed to put private ads? If not I appologise profusely...grovel grovel and please delete this message.

Oh Vivvie, I wondered how you produced such a lot of hot air!
I think my 12'x8' might take off with that in it.

Do not put off thanking people when they have helped you, as they may not be there to thank later.

Hi Vivie
No, we're not supposed to put on ads but then I don't suppose the odd one will do any harm. If you intend to flog something off every day/week then I suppose KG might object. In the meantime, I'm not going to do anything so it should stay here at least until Monday.
