I've been looking at the radiant heaters Lee Valley has: has anyone
here tried that radiant heat concept recently enough to recall whether
or not it works well?
...

I've used one for the last couple of years in my third bay shop here in
Colorado. It's good for local heat and comfort if you are working in a
small area (say doing joinery or marquetry at your workbench).

It doesn't put out enough heat to heat the shop area; over the period of
an hour or so it may shift the overall temp by a couple of degrees at
most.

Mine was very inexpensive from the local home improvement store
(Sutherlands), and is the exact same brand and model that Lee Valley
carries for a few dollars more.


Snow's falling,
Shop's calling
Heat by wood
Is very good.

I love my basement.
