Vintage Valor Perfection 650R Paraffin Kerosene Heater & Wick Made In USA
Item History & Price
The Base is in good condition .there's a few marks and some pitting but its solid. There's a bit of movement on the four legs as they pivot on a single rivet. For uneven floors maybe?
The blue section of the base is enamel and not blue paint, later versions were painted.
The Enamel body is sound , there's a small amount of discolouration and thinning at the top but its in really great shape.
Ther...e's two chips in the enamel on the side. I've captured these in the photos.
The adjusable stove top is sound but does have some tarnishing and chips in the enamel.
It stands 24" tall and is aprox 13" wide at the base. It's much heavier than the similar Valor 525r.
It's one of the very first Valor heaters of this type. It's made for them by Perfection in the USA before Valor started production in the UK.
It gives out a great glow from the ruby red glass when lit and gives out plenty of heat.
It's just been lit and tested for half an hour , the wick is burnt down so I'll include a new genuine Valor wick in the sale., Its the correct wick with the double set of holes on the wick raiser as the later wicks won't fit in the early burners.
The Brass Tank and Burner are all in very good condition . The tank is sound with no leaks,
The flame spreader is good with no distortions.
Comes with a copy of its original instructions and a copy of a period advert.
Please check all the photo's to see the condition, Its a very good example of this classic heater , please send a message if you have any questions.
Its a great room feature with the bonus of a great heater for the winter.
It will be well wrapped and sent by insured courier
overseas bidders welcome.
