Questions on a Reznor F200

[Jmolleck]

hey guys, I noticed the other day a heater for sale locally and was wondering if it is too big (if that's possible), and if it's a good price... It's a Reznor f200 (200,000 btu) for $150... the kicker is, my garage is only 26x30.

it seemed like a good deal for what it is, and figured since it's so big, it would be more efficient in my small space, correct?... I just thought I would see what you guys thought.

thanks

Too big, which will lead to short cycling which isn't good for the heat exchanger.

we have one that size in a 50 x 75 shop with no insulation and it will make it 70 in no time. yes its to big it would run you out in about 5 min. its a heck of a buy if its the curant model. we just got a bid for a another one for a second building, it was right around 8000.00 instaled.

I have a 36 by 48 shop with 100,000 BTU. It keeps up easily even with occasional opening of doors. The one mentioned is probably overkill, but if it is cheap I would opt for it.
