I’d like to use my detached garage workshop all year round. Now it’s stifling in summer, and mostly unusable in winter. Is there a combination heat/air conditioner unit that I could maybe mount on the roof, or in the wall, that would make the space at least more comfortable? Or is my only choice to go with a space heater and window air conditioner? The garage is about 20 X 22, made of cement block.

  1. The heater that trbur6 provided the link to does work well. But for quickly brining a space like that up to temp, these salamanders work the fastest…

    I think the determining factor is whether or not you use the garage every day for 6-8 hours a day or just use it once or twice a week for a few hours. For the former, just get the salamander. If it’s the latter , install a gas or oil fired Modine ceiling mounted blower. Like this….
