We use one at the hunt camp every year after chasing the mice out. Spiders often plug the burner/chimney when left unattended. Keep a spare thermocouple on hand. Not a fast unit to cool freeze an entire fridge full of warm food/meat. A few guys have lost hair lighting the old abused LP clunker we used to have.
Runs quiet and LP consumption is modest.
Will freeze everything stiff if someone leaves the thermostat on the coldest setting thinking that makes it run "faster". Like any other thermostat, set it for the temp you want and leave it alone. Two trays of ice cubes every 3-4 hours is no problem.
Needs ventilation or the C0,C02 or what ever detector will shut the fridge off.
The top/back of the fridge is warm and makes a good place to set bread to rise before baking.
Uses ammonia, water and hydrogen as the heat transport fluid. Pretty clever system but needs to be absolutely level.
Can be had in kerosene versions as well.
Not cheap particularly from Lehman's non-electric. Great reliability with the gas/electric units for storm prone areas.
