Garage Heaters

Overview of Garage Heaters

A garage heater is a heating appliance designed specifically for use in garages, workshops, or other similar indoor spaces. These heaters are built to be durable, efficient, and powerful enough to quickly warm up large, drafty areas. Unlike traditional space heaters meant for small rooms, garage heaters can generate a substantial amount of heat to combat the colder temperatures often found in uninsulated or poorly insulated garages.

Garage Heater Product Types

We offer a variety of garage heater types to suit different needs and preferences. Here's a brief overview of the main categories so you can decide what works best for you according to conditional requirements:

Forced Air Heaters

Forced air garage heaters work by drawing in cool air, heating it with a powerful burner, and then circulating the warm air back into the space using a fan. These are ideal for quickly heating up large garages or workshops from a cold start. The powerful airflow allows the heat to disperse evenly throughout the area.

Also, these units typically run on propane, natural gas, or electricity. They can have output ranges from 30,000 up to 125,000 BTUs or more for industrial-sized garages. Features like built-in thermostats allow you to set and maintain your desired temperature. You can also opt to buy a tube heater.

Radiant Heaters

Radiant garage heaters emit infrared radiation that directly warms objects, surfaces, and people rather than the air itself. This creates a feeling of ambient warmth without wasting energy heating the entire air space. Additionally, radiant models are very efficient and effective for spot heating work areas.

They are commonly fueled by propane, natural gas, or electricity as well. Moreover, radiant tube-style heaters can mount overhead, while portable infrared models are also available. These are best for smaller garages or targeting heat at specific zones like workbenches.

Portable Heaters

As the name suggests, portable garage heaters are compact units designed to be easily moved around as needed. These are great for flexibility in positioning the heat source where you need it most within the garage.

Additionally, portable models run on electricity, propane, natural gas, or even kerosene. They can pack a punch for their size, with BTU outputs ranging from 15,000 up to 60,000 or more. Casters and carrying handles make them very mobile. Or simply purchase outdoor heater if that’s your need.

How to Choose Garage Heaters

The ideal garage heater for you depends on factors like the size of your space, insulation levels, and heating needs. For large, drafty garages that need to be warmed up quickly, a high-output forced air unit may be best. If you have a smaller, better-insulated garage and want focused warmth at your workbench, a radiant heater could be perfect.

Consider how you'll be using the heated space as well. If it's just for working on projects or hobbies, efficient spot heating may suffice. But if you spend a lot of time in the garage, you may want an option that can maintain overall ambient warmth and comfort.

Don't forget to factor in safety, too. Garages often contain combustible materials, so models with overheat protection, tip-over switches, and other safety features are ideal. Proper ventilation is also crucial when using combustion heaters.

No matter your needs, we have the right garage heater to transform your cold workspace into a warm, inviting area you'll actually enjoy spending time in. Stay toasty while working on your latest project or hobby!
