Since I buy diesel in bulk for my F350....I decided to look for a diesel fired space heater for the workshop. WTF...only the Limey's are using them?

My shop stays 70 degrees all winter long... In the winter I use a unit fro "Hired hand" thats made to keep Poultry houses warm. Its 225,000 BTU and thermostatically controlled and quiet. I have the system ducted into the shop and its just like a house!
It does not have a weird smell and runs off of propane. About 600 bucks. |

I broke down and got a dedicated propane tank for the forced air blaster I bought for the wet rugs after last winter's flood. Just fired it up tonight. Took almost three minutes to warm up the place. 38F outside temp and falling. Looks like a freeze is on for tonight.
Closed the grage after turning off the unit. With the R-13 insulation it's still warm after an hour. |
