It's important to make sure wick is fully soaked before lighting.
Yes! After the heater is off, turn the wick all the way down to low so as much of the wick as possible gets soaked in kerosene.
The kerosene heater that produces the least fumes is also the cheapest of my kerosene heaters. I have three of them. Rarely use them anymore.
Unvented propane heaters aren't quite as noxious as kerosene heaters in most cases....they just kill you slower than kerosene.......
