Mark,
I had years of experience heating my garage with a space heater. If I had
it to do again I'd definitely use a "torpedo" type heater with a propane fuel
source. I can still taste(that's right taste) the kerosene from my old heater
when it started up. Sears makes a thermostat for that type of heater which
works very well, goes between the power cord and the electrical outlet. Don't
use a heater without a fan. I always ran it at least 1/2 hour before I
started working in the winter. And, Oh yes, be big time careful never to
disconnect a gas line unless you have unplugged the heater!
