Different heaters use different means to work. Some heating is electric and some is fueled by gas, like natural gas or propane.
Edenpure does not use a flame or fuel heater. Edenpure uses a Quartz infrared zone furnace heater so that it may efficiently heat entire areas that require it.
It uses coleman fuel or WHITE gas. Kerosene is essentially white gas.

Depends on what heater you're talking about. The regular heater uses excess heat from the engine, heat that would otherwise had been removed by the radiator. And then some electricity to power a fan to spread that heat through the car. But some cars (particularly diesels) do have extra heaters, that do run on fuel. And some electricity to pump the coolant around, to power a fan, fuel pump and ignition system for the heater.
how to build a diesel heater
There are two types of tank-less water heaters that run on two different fuels. There is a electric heater, and an oil heater. One gets plugged in the other uses oil

The fuel heater is built with a thermostat inside of it and it gets activated only when the fuel gets cold. It has been preset to a certain temperature when made to come on and go off automatically and can't be adjusted. It won't come on after about 40 degrees F.
Functions of a solar heater
A propane tankless water heater uses propane gas as a fuel source, while an electric tankless water heater uses electricity. Propane heaters typically have higher heating capacities and can be more energy-efficient, but they require a propane supply. Electric heaters are easier to install and maintain, but may have lower heating capacities and higher operating costs.
Yes it is possible, but not recomended. The fuel heater on your IDI is designed to be a starting aid only. Running it for extended periods, even as much as 15 seconds, will overheat it, and burn it out. It is also linked to the glow plug controller, which moniters voltage used. Taking the fuel preheat off of that circut would cause the glow plugs to run longer, and burn those out as well. And yes, it is replaceable, but not available from Ford. Best bet would be a junkyard. Update -- Yes, Ford engines do have a fuel heater. Mine is leaking at the terminal right now which is what led me to this site. Is it part of the housing, or is it removable? ford engines do not have a fuel heater. the fuel that is not used by engine is returned to fuel tank. this fuel is hot and will gradually heat fuel in tank. you can buy after market fuel heaters to install if your goal is to warm all the fuel (diesel) to keep it from gelling, buy an aftermarket fuel heater that will both plug in like a block heater and then circulates coolant or uses 12 volt power to heat constantly while running. if your goal is to heat veg oil with it, the filter heater will not heat much, it heats enough to clear gelled fuel or frozen water in the filter body only. The replacement fuel filter heater is available from ford for many applications in the $150 range. International truck dealers should have them available also. I have had success with installing a new off the shelf o-ring. the hard part is removing the heater without breaking it. [Edit:] This is an 88 IDI not a powerstroke. There is no fuel bowl, and there is a fuel heater.
for heater fans, they have coils. a goodman a/c uses fire.
