Can this heater be mounted either Vertically or horizontally?

This heater can be mounted vertically or horizontally.

Can you chain mount this from the ceiling?

Yes I mounted in my garage ceiling. Has a remote so you do need to reach to turn it on.

Can the patio heater be plugged in series to eliminate multiple power cords?

The problem is that this heater is rated on the highest setting @15 amps the average household plug is rated for 15 amps this is the reason most if not all heaters like this are only rated for 1500 on high which translates to about 15 amps at 120vac. If you go above this you need a higher voltage 220 vac or a higher rated plug/wire/breaker. also most household breakers are only rated for 15 amps or 20 because the wire AWG size is rated for about 20 amps because of the kind of insulation covering the wire. Also something to consider when using extension cords is the longer the cord the more voltage drop you will have and a average extension cord is only 14 awg with a minimum amount of insulation the better cords will be rated at 12 awg or higher but normally you will not find a 120 vac cord above 12 awg because of the plug is not rated above 15-20 max amps. Voltage drop will burn a motor up using a long say 100 ft 14 awg cord on say a air compressor it takes more voltage to start which translated into more amperage to start the higher the voltage the less amps will be needed. It gets a lot deeper than this. the same motor will run cooler and longer if the voltage is kept at or a little above the rated voltage say it's rated for 115 vac and it will pull 15 amps running if supplied with 125 volts the same motor will not use much over 12 amps running if all is well! good day and keep your wires dry.

Is it safe for vinyl mounting?

Unknown. How would you mount it. It needs air flow
