What Heater do you use in your garage gym?

[mattfin]

I've set up a gym in my garage but it gets cold in the winter. I was wondering if anyone had any suggestions as to what heater would be powerful enough to heat a 2 car garage when the outside temperature gets down to freezing or below.

a portable heater would not work too cold

my dad used to use those big ass jet engine heaters, can hat a 2 story houses like a MATCH

Id suggest one of those ones that run off of propane, those put out pretty good heat.

Id suggest one of those ones that run off of propane, those put out pretty good heat. They have heaters specifically for garages, that are built in. but its gonna cost you a good amount of money.

Here is a decent one, but its about 330 bucks.

Last year I rented a duplex and the garage was crappy. When I worked out I used a propane heater and hated it. I just bought a house in October and have been making the garage into my gym. The garage is a little under a two stall. It seems like a stall in a half(15'x20'). I put rolled insulation and O.S.B. up on the walls and ceiling and puzzle mats tiles on the floor. I just ordered this heater last week and got it delivered today. My buddy is coming over tomorrow to help me put it up and run the wiring from the heater to the fusebox. This heater has alot of great reviews. Check it out.

It doesnt get to cold here so I dont need one. In summer, my garage is hot as hell.

We train out of a 2 car garage that has a wood stove in it. That helps a lot, but it's still frigid.

I had a local gas company install a natural gas heater. You can also get one from the local natural gas company. About $500 with installation. Easily keeps my 2 car garage 70 degrees with little additional cost in gas. Discuss options with the installer. Unvented is easiest if you don't have a way to vent the heater. There are also two types of heaters I believe: radiant and I don't remember the name of the other. I use a small portable fan to help circulate the air in the garage. Heated area is about 600 sq. ft.
