I called into the local little garage last week and he was using such a heater. I asked, with a smile on m face, if it wasn't still allowed he replied he didn't know and I said we won't ask. Must say it was giving out a fair amount of heat from a small unit plus the 'exhaust' was clear not black smoke.

Making black smoke, is the sign of poor combustion management. “We” used to be allowed smoke only when first fired, after that if you could see dark fume the chief would be nagging the duty engineer to get the air fuel ratio right and stop wasting his fuel.😂. My multifuel stove only makes smoke immediately after refuelling, the rest of the time you would be hard pushed to even know it was running but for the smell of burning hardwood. You can burn almost any carbon based fuel if you get the parameters right.
