Propex furnace sucks

I installed a Propex for a "quiet" furnace. It is NOT quiet, very inefficient with a ton of heat going out the tail pipe, and draws more battery power than specified. It has enough of a blower on the exhaust for it to be noticably noisy outside the scamp. I am experimenting with muffling the intake and hot air vents to bring down the fan noise. So unnecessary in such a small space. On the plus side it easily fit under the bed and blows plenty of hot air to warm up scamp quickly.

I am experimenting with a P9000. I may have my propex for sale at some point.
