Greetings again to the forum with a question-
Having reviewed past forums for information and not really seeing an answer to the following, I submit the question:
With propane the subject of moisture usually comes up and that it is a problem particularly in moist atmosphere, such as the Pacific Northwest/Alaska. Even so, the discussion seemingly revolves around the use for cooking and when heating is mentioned, there is little information as to how the difference is between heating and cooking.
I'd like to give consideration to a Newport wall mount propane heater. The question related regards the amount of moisture instilled from the heater vs. the exhaust going up the stack?
In cooking it is clear that the moisture created by the heat is from the open flame, in the heater it would seem the flame is contained and exhausted allowing the heat to flow. Am I missing a science factor here?
By the way, with our cooking propane stove, we do use joy on the windows,
Thanks for any explanation received.

Two Eskimos sitting in a kayak were chilly, so they lit a fire in the
craft. Unsurprisingly it sank, proving once again that you can't have
your kayak and heat it too.
