the only thing is the 80K BTU’s… isnt alot. Once it gets up to temp I bet it would maintain it good enough. If you can find a convection one like that with around 120K or more, it would be worth the extra $$$.
If you dont mind the noise, good old kero 200kBTU salamandor will heat it up fast and if it has a thermostat it will kick on and off by it self and maintain it well.
they only stink when they kick on initally… when it fires up it richens the mixture up a bit and a puff of smoke usually comes out, then once the element gets red hot, it chills out and just blows alot of air and a little bit of combustion.
But yeah propane is the way to go if you get a big enough unit. (no homo)
KKK, mines a 40kbtu and mine and vots garages are very similar in size… the 40k convection heater I have keeps my garage really warm on low-med heat depending on how cold it is outside… if i turn it on high and leave it there I sweat my balls off…
the 80k should not have an issue…
