These look like they might be pretty efficient......do you think they would be able to heat up a single car garage with an insulated door in 30min? One wall and ceiling are common to living space. What did they add to your electricity usage? I am thinking I am not going to try to work in -20 C.....maybe these will be enough.

I have used smaller units like this. There is no fan, open element, or ombustion, very neat and tidy
