Are you planning on hardwiring this unit, or adding a cord and attachment plug?

Legal limit, no. Performance limit, yes.

What's the watts?

I would imagine a portable heater came with a cord. The heater has a UL listing. The heater cord may be limited by the UL listing to a six ft. Cord.

Thus the wall space requirements for rec. in dwellings. No wall space further then six foot from a Rec.

What if the heater is not going to be used in a dwelling unit?
