You have to match the BTU with the size of the room you want to heat, for example, if you have a 750 square foot garage with 10 foot ceilings, you will need around 22,500 to 30,000 BTUs. and Why use propane versus another source of energy like electricity? simply, to ensure having heat in case the power isn't on or available in their shop at the time, with a propane heater, you can keep warm regardless of electricity being available. Now, what about proper ventilation? each propane model will have a vent or hose to get the emissions out of the air that must be followed explicitly for your safety, So always follow the instructions given from the manufacturer.
