Actually, no. Catalytic heaters give off two combustion waste products, carbon dioxide and water vapor. I use catalytic heaters in my RV which is my full time home. I leave them running night and day in the winter and love them. They are efficient with gas, give radiant heat and use NO electricity. At least my Olympian heaters use none. I always leave a roof vent open (a 14" x 14" vent) at least one and a half inches on the open edge, more if I've got both heaters really cookin'. I'm talking about heating a 35 foot long trailer, of course. Scott From: "M.R.

The Black Cat produces more heat and less water Isn't condensation a product of how well the heater warms the interior (and creates temp differences on the cold windows etc.) and the amount of moisture inside the bus (heavy breathing)? Popping the top or opening a window just a bit helps by circulating some of that cold dry air and removing humidity, right?
