Most garages are not connected to central heating, making them a large cold spot in most home heating systems. When winter comes, an unheated garage can be a less appealing place for home maintenance, tinkering, and other hobbies.
Why Electric?
Safety
Propane or natural gas heaters pose safety risks to your garage that electric heaters don’t. Along with your car, truck, or other gas-powered vehicles, you may also store gas, oil and other flammables in your garage. Because there are no open flames or exhaust fumes with electric heaters, the air remains clear and they’re safer to use around gas vehicles and lawn tools.
Efficiency
With this type of baseboard heater, the thermostat cycles on and off less frequently. This lowers energy usage – and your energy bill. These energy savings make this type of heater great for homes and offices alike.
Flexibility
Electric garage heaters give you the flexibility to heat your space the way you want without taking up floor space or creating a tripping hazard. They can be mounted on the wall or ceiling, and angled to push warm air horizontally, vertically or in any other direction you choose. These installation and airflow options are much harder to achieve with a gas garage heater.
