Garage heating options - 2.5 car

[turbotalon1g]

I'm wondering if anyone had any good ideas, I have one of them bullet heaters right now but its on its last legs and I need something better.
I live in a townhome with an association, and I'm hoping to be out of here in 3-5 years.

I keep seeing ideas of a wood burning stove, but I don't really have the room for one.
A friend suggested this http://www.fleetfarm.com/catalog/product_detail/heating-cooling/heaters/propane/procom-30-000-btu-dual-fuel-vent-free-garage-heater

Thanks

So does that just hang up on the wall then or something?

I personally just use a small Propane torpedo style heater. It's kind of small for my 2 stall garage, but I just wear a hoodie. I feel like it's around 25000 BTU.

I had a much bigger Kerosene one that worked amazing, but I would start coughing really bad, I'm assuming from the fumes it put out. So might want to stay away from those.

I just found out its a wall mounted heater, which means it won't work for me.
I don't really want another torpedo heater, but it looks like what I'll be getting.

Small house furnace works great :D that's what I have in my garage,but my garage is literally bigger then my house. I just have it plumbed into the gas line for the house. I can it to about 70 in about 15-20 mins. Or you could always get a heater that hangs from the ceilings like most professional shops have. I have seen smaller versions of what they have. I'm on my phone now, but when I get home I will post a link.

I wouldnt use any of the propane type heaters, they put out too much crap in the air unless you have a good source of fresh airflow.

My parents have one of these in their 3 car garage and in a half hour it heats up the garage nicely. http://www.northerntool.com/shop/tools/product_595_595

Id get one of these and then just section off one of the stalls with plastic and work in there.

^That looks pretty good. I like that, but I'd need a natural gas feed right?

No its electric! hehe But this one is a 240V model, so you do need a hookup for that..

[turbotalon1g]

lol, i saw after i posted. I do have a 220 outlet and an extra circuit breaker wired outhere, I'll talk to my electrician before I purchase.

This looks like it will be the one, if not I'll get another torpedo style heater :rolleyes:

If you've already got 220V out there, I'd go that way. I put in a big ass natural gas commercial heater in mine and it'll heat my 3-car in under 20 minutes, but running the gas line and exhaust was a pain in the ass. Just don't go with the cheapest, you end up spending more in the long run, it's better to oversize than undersize.

I talked to my electrician friend and he said that it would cost a lot to run that electric heater.

If it wasn't a townhome that I hope to get out of I would have no problem sticking a big badass heater in, but since I know I want out of it I don't want anything too crazy.
