I put the heater several feet away from my workspace such that the
warm air is all I get. These heaters all have exposed flames, some
more than others but none are flamethrowers.

That's a good price. I run mine from a 50# tank.
The propane models will have a bit of flame out the front, so watch
where you stand.

As a brand, they've been around a long time and there isn't a whole lot to go
wrong with a propane heater, short of the ignitor perhaps.
Most of those heaters will tell you what to expect in terms of fuel consumption.
As a fellow Kanuckistani, I'd find out about that first: how MANY 20-pound
cylinders you are going to go through during the course of a week.
You got natural gas where you live? (I'm not talking beans.)
