I need a heater for my under-house garage that's portable. Garage is about 15x12. Thinking about propane but do I have to vent it???? Thoughts?????

I went with the Dyson hot and cold bladeless fan. It was a bit pricey at $400 but it does heating and cooling, which covers my garage year round.

how warm are you trying to get it ?

On a 40+ day I'd like to see 60-65. I tried a "Mr. Heater" but the propane worried me. Returned it. Still looking :(

it is hard to get an electric heater to heat an area that big fast. I seen these at costco they look interesting

I have a 14x40 garage under the house. Got a electric heater from Home Depot it's around $200.00 if I remember. Hangs from ceiling and plugs into 220 plug. Has a temostat and fan. Works great and cheap to run. I keep at 52 and it heats the garage up 60 in a couple of minutes

Get yourself one of these hook it up to 220v and get yourself a good thermostat.
