Below is an online customer review we have taken from a site that sells these products, and have summarized for your perusal:

“Step 1 – I had a 22x22x9 foot garage in which I wanted to work comfortably during the winter. As I thought I would need plenty of heat, I went out and purchased a propane heater (40,000 BTU). Trouble is, it emits plenty of carbon monoxide as well as the heat, so I had to keep the windows and doors slightly open to let in fresh air, which kind of defeated the purpose as the efficiency of the heater was severely compromised. Although the heater did manage to heat the garage in the end, the way it went about it was all wrong – the fumes were so bad that I stopped using it in the end. As well as this, the unit was very loud, with a hissing sound that was like compressed air escaping. Another thing that was annoying was the fact that whenever the propane ran out, the heater just stopped working, so whenever you needed heat you had to drag the unit outside and connect it to the propane tank. And then lug it all back in when that was finished, and then find somewhere to store it when it wasn’t in use. There was no thermostat on it either. All in all, not a nice experience at all.

Step 2 – I went and bought myself one of these electric garage heaters. Although it only had half the BTU’s than the propane heater, there was no need to open any doors or windows for ventilation, meaning the heat stayed in the room/building. It had a handy thermostat allowing me to set when I needed the unit to turn on or off, allowing me to work in comfort.

I mounted the heater on the wall, but it can also be mounted on the ceiling, as long as you follow the clearance instructions in the manual. Nevertheless, as soon as the unit is mounted, it is out of the way but always ready for action. No need to haul the unit outside for anything and when you needed heat, you just turned the thing on. Simple! And then just turn off when you are done.

So, my advice on all of this? Just skip step 1!”
