Question:

Is this heater safe to run 24-7 as a main source of heat ? And is it safe to sleep with it on all night?

Yes. The Camco Olympian Wave Heater # CAM57331 can be used as your primary source of heat and can be setup to be both permanently installed or portable. This is a heating solution that is safe to sleep with the unit on, but you will need to leave a window cracked at all times to allow for combustion to occur.

When it comes to installation/setup, you do need to ensure you have a professional install this, have a window cracked to use the heater, and verify your propane set up meets your local regulations (which is another reason it is required a professional do the installation) but it is safe to use in the manner you're referring to as long as the directions are followed.

It is recommended that these units are kept covered when not in use, so you can use the Camco Custom-Fit Dust Cover for Olympian Wave 3 Catalytic Heater - Wall Mounted # CAM57706 for wall mounted applications or Camco Custom-Fit Dust Cover for Olympian Wave 3 Catalytic Heater - Portable
Item # CAM57722 for a portable setup.

I've linked a review video of this unit for you to check out, which refers to the installation process in a bit more detail.
