Our house is old and poorly insulated, and out in the added-on sections it gets pretty cold. The main heat is a standalone natural gas furnace in the living room - no exterior vents. In very cold we

There is also the possiblity for a gas leak from the tank. Propane is heavier than air and will pool and spread across the floor. If you have a basement garage, any leak spread and could be ignited b

I use this type of heater in my garage for the CO reasons. Not so much that I'm worried about being smothered by the CO, but I get a headache from it. The other nice thing about the dish, is I can se

Not directly near the gas tank, but in an open space in the garage. I touught about the possibility of a fire but I don't see it as any more dangerous than any other flame in a garage. My main concer

There was a thread earlier in the year about shop heaters, but this thread focused mostly on those in the Frigid North. I live in Dallas, Texas, and I'd like to get a portable heater to make my garag

I used one of those radiant propane heaters for many years in Michigan. Yes the warmup is slow. What I did was to point it in the general direction of where I was and it could easily toast me because

Good idea. For a few bucks you can get a CO monitor from any pilot shop; check out the little airfield near your house or call Sporty's (1-800-LIFTOFF in the USA). For a couple of bucks you get a li
