My garage is 20' wide X 22 " deep, insulated, with an insulated 16 foot wide door .I came across a new, in the box, Hot Dawg 45000 btu gas heater by Modine on another forum. Fortunately my gas meter is just behind my garage , so it was just a matter of drilling a hole in the wall & running a line to it , plus the exhaust pipe which was the bulk of the job. The btu rating is overkill for a garage this size , but it was a good deal at the time.In the winter, which is normally damp & mild, I can be in shorts & a T shirt in 7-8 minutes from start up.If I'm washing the car , I'll set it around 60-65 F. Gas use is negligible & doesn't seem to affect my bill. It's about the size of a Canadian 24 of beer. Their website has a good variety of heaters.The garage has been totally cleaned up after this pic was taken.
