Post Shop Heater
Looking for a line on a good shop heater and maybe a propane tank (100 or 200gal or so) and someone to connect the gas line to the heater. My shop is just about done so it’s time to think about heat. Shop is 24*32 with 9' ceiling. It’s insulated to the hilt and i will be keeping it heated.

Any suggestions or comments appreciated.

My dad has a similar shop, even down to the insulation. He can keep it above 40 in Monte Vista (where temps are often in the single digits and lower pretty frequently) with a small electric heater. It's amazing.

That being said, radiant heat is awesome.

Zilla – The shop is for just working on my junk so it’s just residential. I’m thinking something like a Modine Hot Dawg heater. I liked the one I had in my shop back in Wisconsin. Radiant heat would be great but i dont have the coin for it and I don't want to lose the ceiling height.

As for a timeframe, not looking for it right now because this project is $3000 over budget (just ask my wife she likes to talk about that point) but I would like to start the process moving.

As far as a dream shop, I don’t think so but I guess its mine and I built almost all of it. Its kinda like my Bronco…I built it and it looks okay from a distance but once you’re up close you can see all the… imperfections.
