My hangar is 2000 sq. ft; 12' @ eaves 18' @ peak. A large volume.
I have a 250,000 BTU contractors heater that takes too long to heat up the volume and costs too much to operate with the current cost of propane.
I thought about getting a propane patio heater, but they empty a 20 Lb. propane tank in 10 hrs. - still too expensive.
110V electric is 1500 Watts = not much heat
I have two 220V single phase outlets for my welder. I made a 220V extension cord so I can get any place in the hangar. Are there any reasonably priced 220V electric radiant heater that I could hang on a stand at about patio heater height or higher that would warm me and the floor for a 10 x 10 or 15 x 15 area? I have a floor mat to stand on.
I continue to throw away entire winters when I should occasionally be working on my plane. Thanks for any suggestions you can pass my way.
