So to cabbage onto this message, what are the thoughts on the propane
tank mounted infrared heaters?

Thanks,

That is what I have used in my shop for years. Shop is small and well
insulated. I can usually turn it on, go back inside and drink a
second cup of coffee then go out to the shop and generally turn it off
after a half hour or so. I'm in the South, but it works well for
those days that start off and finish up below freezing. I run through
two or three 20lb tanks a winter, but don't use the shop every day.

I'm getting ready to finish the inside of my garage here in Central
Illinois. I want to be able to heat it comfortably to work in it during the
winter. Figured I should think about heat before I do the wiring and
drywalling. I first thought about using natural gas, but figured electric
would be better when using chemicals and such. Just wondered what other
people out there are using and what to avoid. Any advice?
