And I'm sure the electric bill is VERY high.

It depends on how often the heater is used, how the garage is insulated and how much a person pays for electricity in a particular area. Electric heaters are usually more expensive to operate, but they do have their place.

Slightly off topic but somewhat related....

I have a 15,000w dayton Portable heater with a wall mount. I figured at $.171 per kWh it would cost about $2.57 per hour of continuous running. It works well. So well that I pulled one of the coil bank fuses to drop it to 7500 W.

Electric is the most expensive form of heat but it is practically 100% efficient. I use a propane portable to take the chill off and the electric heater to maintain the temp.

It also has a fan only option that can and will be used when the temp is higher.

Hi I have the 10,000 watt heater in my garage and love it. We have 3 of them in a auto service garage where I work and I was super impressed with them, so when I built my garage I put 1 in.
