You can do much better buying from a reputable dealer. This is only a 3kw heater. Northern Tool has 4 kw heaters cheaper.

For $99

Or, if you don't need the wall mount, $80

And, dealing with a reputatable dealer like Northern Tool always makes better sense than dealing with Ebay.

That's what I'm using in my 24' X 34' shop. It's been in use for six years now and I like it. Low energy usage and quiet operation. But I have my shop very well insulated and that makes a huge difference.

I'm 28x52 VERY well insulated & heat with a 220v 3k heater (Dayton) & it does a phenominal job!

Good I am going to be building a 30x60 shop next year so heat will be a must but AC will be a bigger concern

thoughts on wheeling a propane patio-heater into the garage to warm it up a bit?..

between me and the wife theres so much crap around id be afraid of fire, and w/ the car in pieces there really isnt much safe distance between the car parts and a heater @least right now:mad:

For my garage I've got a 240V 4800W heater.

Bought it for $70 on sale. Regular $100.

Most any local big box store should have something comparable.
