how is everyone keeping there garage warm with this cold weather?
What kind of heater do you use to heat the room and do you still use aquarium heaters?
Reason I ask is I'm not happy with my heater in there right now and looking to see whats working for everyone.
Thanks

I have a 1500 watt floor heater with a programmable thermostat. The lowest it's gotten here is 27 and it has kept up fine. My fishroom
Is 10x12. I still have to run heaters in my bottom rows of tanks.

I have walled in and insulated my garage to turn it into a fish room . I ran a heater vent from my house to heat it . I run several tanks on one sump,and 6 sytems total. I do place a 300 watt heater in each sump to help though.
Hope this helps ,, Ray

I have 2 space heaters, both ceramic with the safety shut off, they fall, they turn off.
I run them on cold nights.
I need to line my garage door with foam sheeting still.....
