Lazinator hit it, was going to post that myself. In fact, if you look close you will see the holes on the back of the unit so it can be hung on a wall. That being said, I would keep it a few inches away from the tent fabric as it gets extremely hot about 6 inches above and just slightly in front of the heater, so if the wind blew the side of the hut into this area, could be trouble.

I have been considering building a plywood box for mine that it would sit in, with sides, front and top that fold out of the way, but a solid back and bottom. Would protect the heater while in transport, and give a solid base to keep it from tipping over and a solid back to keep contact away.

haha.. I am just reading this now.. Sorry folks I am behind in my reading, too busy with decals, toques and all kinds of other stuff.. I am about half way to nsfishers eventual toy conundrum. All I need is an ATV/sled and trailer.. But I will refrain for now and just walk out. I have my heater only 1-2 inches from the canvas to be safe, but the CLEARANCE TO COMBUSTIBLES is good info to know..
