I have 2 construction heaters, hooked up to a programmable thermostat, through 2 relays. I don't use the programmable feature now, but I used to, when I did more shop work.
I keep the workshop/garage at 40F, and anytime I go out there to work, it comes up to 65-70F, in an hour. Depends on the outside temperature.
The space is insulated.

  Jim and Jeff, sounds awful Jim, but I have one that cost a few hundred dollars more, that is vented, and works quite well too. Chris Solliday

    Jeff,

     

    You might consider a "ventless" gas heater. I have a 25,000btu heater in my shop that works well. It cost around $200.00. This puts moisture into the air and keeps the room (550 sq ft) at about 60% humidity. Cautions are that it is an open flame, it isn't approved for "living areas", it does pump a lot of water into the air, and some heating companies won't install them. Sounds awful, doesn't it? I love it.
