That said, .......what are your thoughts on using this heater with a garage door cracked open 12" or so of ventilation? Enough ventilation for eliminating the threat of carbon monoxide poisoning?

Using something like what you are using, do you have any doors open, windows open, etc.... for ventilation? It's propane as well as mine and from what everyone here is saying I'm going to die if I use this inside my garage. (A little humor boys don't take it aggressively).... Bottom line of me...

So why do they make so many damn "garage heaters" that are propane type heaters? If you google garage heater, get on Lowes, Home Depot, etc... websites and look for garage heaters the vast majority end up being propane use. Some kerosene but lots of propane heaters. I certainly understand...

I've definitely considered the carbon monoxide issue for sure. If the garage door is partially opened about 12" or so then is it safe to assume that there is enough ventilation to eliminate the hazard for carbon monoxide poisoning? I'm a bit overly sensitive to this issue as one of my close...

My neighbor has been using one of those tall outdoor patio heaters in his garage for years and I decided to get one. In short, it's AWESOME! The heat is more than ideal. Getting to my point.....I'm curious if the heater when turn on has any affect on the ceiling fluorescent light fixtures...

What is that heater? Make, model, where'd you get it?? That looks ideal for what I'm looking for. I've been worried a bit about using any tank top heaters or any propane gas inside my garage as I wasn't sure how the carbon monoxide build up would occur. But the electric one you have in the...

yea....I hear that. The thing is, I will be able to afford it around spring or summer time this year....BUT.... I have a ton of stuff to do this winter in my shop and I need a good solution for heat now. That's why I was thinking tank top triple burners but there are some other options that I...

Bump.....can anyone comment on the above questions? Thanks

So for example, will a T5 bulb fit in a T8 light fixture? Or does the bulb have to be the same "T?" as the fixture itself? Are any particular sizes of bulbs supposed to be any better than others? Example: Is a T5 bulb better than a T8 bulb or a T12 bulb? The prices are different so I'm...

So what's the difference between T8, T5, T12.....etc? Seems like the 6500 Kelvin is the brightness I'm looking for but not sure how the T? fits into things. Is it the fixture or the bulb?

Changing the direction of this thread without starting a new thread: Now that I've done entirely too much research I'm without a doubt going to use a temporary space heater for this winter. There are TONS of options and I've read loads of reviews on so many of them. I like the idea of the...

Now that looks a lot better. Much brighter. How many switches did you put on all those lights?

Damn that's some good work you did there! Pretty amazing. Is it brighter in person than in your picture? For that much lighting it looks a lot darker than I would have imagined. Maybe picture or camera quality??

I'd really like to see a picture or two of the ceiling set up of your shop. Sounds like a ton of light but definitely along the lines of what I'm looking to do. Can you take a few pics for me and post them. Thanks:beer:

What's a hot air heater?
