Heating a Garage

[Gregor 4,847]

I am compiling another spread sheet for another experiment, but I thought this was interesting.

In this chart you will see an AVG TEMP of 34. The furnace was not shut down during this time frame. LARGE PRINT RED

I think you need to get rid of the furnace anyway because why bother with that when you can just connect independent heating, install radiators everywhere and you just have to adjust the temperature. That's how I recently bought a radiator outlet for vertical radiators and installed a in my bathroom and it's very convenient. Or you can splurge a lot and buy yourself solar panels first and then electric heating. Your house will be self-sufficient and environmentally friendly.
