    Dimplex DGWH4031 is pretty nice!

    I got my Dimplex DGWH4031 mounted and running in my 1 car uninsulated, but drywalled garage. It's 25 degrees outside, and after about an hour of the unit running my garage was very a comfortable temperature while wearing a sweatshirt. It was warm enough to not see my breath.

    Heating a one car garage temporarily....

    I have a 1 car attached garage that is roughly 240 square feet. Every so often I have small electronics projects that I work on, and I'd like to take some chill out of the air. I tried an electric space heater, but they trip the breaker, and I don't want to wire up another breaker for the...
