Hello everyone. I have a 25x25 foot garage with about ten foot ceilings. What would be the best style and size heater for this size garage? Can be electric or propane really don't care but would prefer it not to be kerosene or diesel just for fume purposes. Will a Mr Big buddy heat this pretty good?

What is your location ?
What kind of insulation does the garage have ?

First, do a heat loss calculation.
Know how?

I live in southwest Tennessee on the Kentucky and Tenneseee stateline. Temperatures here in the winter on average are anywhere from 10 lows and low 40's high. On average I'd say it stays just above freezing most of the time.
Garage is insulated besides the garage door and I have two small windows and a man door.
Haven't done a heat loss calculation yet but I will. Thanks

I used a mr heater 75000 btu torpedo style heater this weekend that runs off of diesel or kerosene. It heated my garage no problem and wasn't even cranked half way most of the time. Only thing is the fumes...man the fumes. Even with the garage door cracked almost a foot it still was really strong. I would just like to have something that will give me the ability to work in a long sleeve shirt and be comfortable.
