CO2 is heavier than air. If you use ANY heater with a flame, make sure you
crack the garage door so it can escape. The CO produced is slightly
lighter than air.
For me, in view of the gasses that are given off by resins, cleaners, and
paints that would be burned, producing other noxious fumes, I
I installed a "Hot Dawg" propane heater in my shop and it does a
wonderful job. I mounted it up on the ceiling out of the way, directing
the heat to blow downwards at an angle.
Here is the home page, but they are sold many many places, even Amazon.
Google for other places to buy.

I would suggest that you look into a Toyostove heater. They come in kerosene
or propane fired models and vent through the wall. No open flames , no
combustion gasses in the building and they can be programmed to come on before
you get home and warm your shop to whatever temperature you select
The catalytic 'ventless' heaters Im talking about are clean burning and
dint produce noxious fumes... To the point that there are varieties
certified for permanent indoor residential use

Are hanging heaters (Reznor, Modine, Dayton, etc.) not an option? You can
plumb them for either natural gas or propane. They are readily available on
Ebay. Just a thought.

Don't do it. In the 80's I had a place in PA with a 16' X 32' addition. I
rented it out to some people while I was overseas and they used the addition as
a family room and had a kerosene heater (catalytic, I think) in it. When I came

Only a suggestion, but my old kerosene heater provided a lot of problems.
The one I am presently using is a propane heater of the same style and provides
no fumes and heats much better... I use a 100 lb tank that seems to last a
long time don't know how many hours, but seems to have no p
Tried that in a 30 x 30 garage, fumes were beyond comfort and tolerance.
