How to Heat a Garage or Workshop for Under $100. The Comfort Zone Industrial Heater: Does it Work?

My objective in this video is to determine if I can heat my two car garage with the Comfort Zone Industrial 5000w Heater. After installation (not shown in this video), I test the heater's efficiency by timing and tracking the temperature over a given period of time with multiple digital thermometers.

I have one of those. It works really well if you have a fan going too, mine is a ceiling fan. My space is insulated also, and it will raise the temp 10 degrees in 15 minutes (from 50deg)

[@Falconlibrary]

I strongly recommend insulating your garage. It's currently 21 degrees outside but it's 54 degrees in my garage without the heater on. Insulated door (very important), walls, roof--and with a 1500 watt ceiling-mounted radiant heater on, it raises the temperature easily in about an hour and maintains it.

[@TheSwampDaddy]

@Daniel Bradford How would you insulate a garage door? Do I need a new door? I'm in the south Texas and was thinking I need a mini-split for air conditioning (and I suppose these units heat as well).

[@Moore221092]

as far as i know, you can buy insulated garage doors or you could just do some research on the most effective layer of insulation to simply install over top of your current garage door. @@TheSwampDaddy

[@erob8347]

Really appreciate the no-nonsense information. Very unbiased and adequate for a decent work space. Thanks you sir.

[@1mtstewart]

Using a cheap box fan will minimize striation of air temperatur in the building. Two walls insulated is like a box with only two sides. If you have a man door, do a fan test on how well the building is sealed for air leahs, then seal those air leaks. The $100 price for the heater is minimal for all the extra kilowatts you will be purchasing with that much leakage and uninsulated square footage. If you aren't planning on staying long, great. Otherwise: -Seal it up -insulate - add a circulation fan in the opposite corner blowing downward to heat the whole building. Good video.

[@Pappy63]

I bought the exact one from Rural King 3 years ago for about 90 bucks. I couldn't be more satisfied

[@BigDanSubaru03]

Thanks for the video. I also have an 18x20 garage. It's a metal building with foil bubble insulation and an uninsulated roll up door. I purchased the 7.5kW version of this heater and will install it this weekend. Should keep my garage a comfortable working temp. The added capacity should also bring it up to temp faster. Didn't route a gas line and don't want to constantly refill propane or stinky kerosene.

[@ArtisanMade]

I agree, especially if you are not running it every day. But if you already have gas lines in your house, definitely worth it then.

[@captin2284]

Any update on this? I have a 1700sqft garage that is well insulated and wondering how I'd fare

[@BigDanSubaru03]

@captin2284 my 7.5kw electric heater heats my 18x20 garage very well. Heats up fast too. Only thing is the ceiling is high in there and the heat tends to stay up high. This trips the thermostat on the unit before it reaches temp at working level. I fixed the issue by setting the heater to 90°F shutoff. That makes it nice and cozy to work in a t-shirt even in the dead of winter.

[@jonmilford4751]

Try placing a small oscillating fan in the room to create air currents/flow. Works in my small shop.

[@ThekiBoran]

An option would be to get a small propane heater to help get the temperature up quickly then use the electric ceiling heater to maintain the temp.

[@jwill9877]

Your better off buying a mini split and sizing it for heating. Heat pumps are far more efficient and will pay for itself compared to a conventional electric coil heater

[@cathnu2]

I have the same heater in a 16 x 24 garage. Insulated door and ceiling. Walls are not insulated. In the 40's to 50's it heats up quickly to a comfortable temp. Colder I have the same issue. It's warm in the top of the garage but much cooler lower. When the temp is down in the teens and the garage is empty it just knocks the edge off. However my son changed his oil in there once in the teens and it was very comfortable. (Less air to warm maybe?). Got mine on a Black Friday deal a few years ago for about 80 bucks so really it was worth it.

[@garymucher9590]

Key word here is "insulation". You can easily insulate your garage door with some foam board. It works really well and isn't expensive to do.

[@ArtisanMade]

That’s a great idea. I needed to replace the door anyway, so now I have a fully insulated shop.

[@Stainlessslayer]

I have the same heater. Keeps the garage just warm enough to work without freezing. Lack of insulation is my problem.

[@mikewalters8361]

I left unit on 55 degree 100% time but ceiling was insulated 12" insulated door ,all walls on 20 x20 insulated. Cost 35 .oo a month . Took 15 min when i was out there to get 70 degree.

[@tomc8157]

I use a 135k btu diesel bullet heater. Takes about 4 minutes to get 70 in two car garage from ambient of 25ish.

[@Krankie_V]

I bought a similar heater, 4000 watts, for my garage. I just use it to keep it from freezing in my garage and it's perfect for that. I have a propane heater that I use to make it comfortable when I'm working in the garage.

[@tonyd4346]

Hang a DIY box fan / air filter blowing upward low enough to reach the switch. It will filter the air as well as mix the cold air on the floor with the stratified warm air. Big difference!

[@heywoodjablome7834]

Dude I just ordered this exact heater for $80. I am so happy I found your video

[@ArtisanMade]

You won’t be disappointed

[@PainterD54]

I heat my insulated three stall garage with one of these but it needs a little help when it's real cold outside. Once the temps start to dip down into the low 20s, I use my 80,000 btu kerosene heater to bring the temp up to about 68 - 70 or so, (which takes a whole 15 minutes) and then the 5000w over head electric heater can maintain the heat from there usually. The kerosene heater never has to come back on unless it way below 0 outside. They work pretty good an if you clean them out periodically and lube the motor, they last for many years.

[@yes350yes]

Ive discovered something rather recent. I live in the mid-west and I just need to keep a few plants from freezing going dormant ok. I happen to an inwall heater because my water softener is out there. But Im noticing that by simply parking my vehicle in there its much easier to heat, it is about a car and half size space . I mainly keep a temp monitor running for plants so I know how cold it is out there. Tonight it will get tested as outside air will go into the 20s F.

[@richardc1983]

Put the heater on the floor, heat rises so that's why you have cold at the bottom and warm at top.

[@timmoore6074]

Would be interesting to see what 2 of these would do. The price of 2 is still fairly cheap considering other options. I see they have a 7500 watt version for $299

[@ArtisanMade]

[@scruffy4647]

Depends on how much your electric is. As others have suggested, insulation works and has a short ROI.

[@WmNatali-md1if]

You couldn’t ask for a better compacted heater!

[@lloydroth9974]

You could probably mount the heater lower because heat does rise that’s why the lower half stays cooler. And using a fan to help move the heat around to works good.

[@rupe53]

Lloyd Roth ... the main problem with mounting a unit lower is all the crap the average guy has in the garage. (fire hazard) You can certainly mount it high and aim it to blow toward the floor. (recommended) The key to better comfort is usually more air flow than the heater can provide. IOW, a second fan (elsewhere) to push the warm air to the floor.

[@cameronbateau6510]

What will happen if you mount the heater lower?

[@RichsMowersNBlowers]

[@marks3750]

A centrally located ceiling fan set at low speed, blowing up would move the warm air up high out across the ceiling to the walls and then down to the floor. That would more evenly distribute the heated air.

[@adamjonkie5601]

yeah but it's kind of weird having a ceiling fan in a garage

You can get pick styrofoam strips to glue on your garage door sections real cheap. That’s what an insulated door is anyway, with a cover over the foam.

That is a great idea. I needed a new door anyway so now I have an insulated one.

[@turn-n-burn1421]

I would say it's probably not very good for my needs. I live in the Midwest where it's now winter. Can easily get to 0 degrees outside. With an uninsulated garage, it looks like on those days, I might hope for it to get to around 10 if I'm lucky. That wouldn't help at all. Never mind the added electricity for no useful benefit.

@@pushtoyota It depends on your use case. In my case, electricity is 30 cents an hour (after 60 minutes, the heater cycles off and on). The heater is only needed six months out of the year.
