- I use a natural gas unit heater. It is hung from the garage clg. and works really well, but you have to pipe natural gas to them and put a flue through the roof. May be more trouble than you want to

- I have used one of those "infra-red" propane heaters for more than 5 years and they are great. It is basically a unit that fits on top of a standard propane tank, which heats up a metal gauze (4"x4")

- You can't smell carbon monoxide. If you find some headaches coming on, you might want to vent it. You *should* vent it anyway, or open a window at the minimum. chill air leave move behind

- Nobody has mentioned electric heat. Electric heat would eliminate the need for venting. I know that Home Depot and COSTCO (Price Club) sell an electric dish heater. Best display of it was at COSTCO!

- One more point, many of these heaters have a CO shut off. This argument(IMHO) is the same argument as not storing paint or solvents in your house. Too dangerous to even consider. How many people thin
