small home shop heater

Dragsinger · 11-22-2008, 01:50 PM

This is a 20 x 20 home shop were I do some race car sub - assembly bench work and other around the house projects. The building is reasonably and tight and has some insulation.

For years I have toughed it out with no heat but as my "mature years" approach [basically, I am old!] I do not tolerate the cold like years past.

240 voltage is available but no gas. Propane is an option, but for convince electric is the first choice. Mostly weekend use so the electric bill would not be a big issue with an efficient heater. My location is East Texas, mostly 40 - 50's average day time temps.

Let me hear what some of you have used.

Thanks
