Garage heater placement: Diagonal? Centered?

[The Rusty Gear]

Finally got moved in yesterday and last night the temperature dipped below freezing (-5C). TIME TO INSTALL A GARAGE HEATER!

I'll likely be getting a forced air heater running on cheap, Alberta natural gas. My question is: what is the best placement? do I put it centered on the back wall of the garage pointing at the door? or do I put it in a corner and have it point at the opposite corner towards the door? Something else?

Luckily the garage is already insulated.

I am just south of you in Calgary, I put mine in the far corner away from big door and man door but with ducting to direct the air towards the frontal part of my work area since I work there most of the time, let the rest get what it gets.

The instructions I got with my Beacon Morris heater was to mount it so that it was in the middle of a wall and 45 degrees to the wall so that the air pushed by the fan actually makes the rounds of the rooom by deflecting off each subsequent wall at 45 degrees. It seems to make sense.

I mounted mine at the back corner of the shop at a 45 degree angle. I haven't fired it up yet (waiting on the propane guy to run the line), but it seemed to make the most sense.
