I heat a 24 x 24 garage with 10' ceiling. Works great, but a bigger heater would be advised for a 30x40 building. Also depends on your location and what you have for heat loss.

yes it will heat it but you will burn a heck of a lot of propane in the meantime. its best if you turn it on high for starters and then lower the thermostat down so you can save on propane while maintaining temperatures. quite frankly though I would look for something that will lower your costs.lower your usage costs.

I have a large 3 by high ceiling garage and this warms it up to an acceptable temp in less than an hour when it is 20 to 30 deg out.

My garage is 600 sqft and uninsulated with 10 ft a ten foot ceiling and l run it on the lowest setting after warming the shop on high. The outside tps were from 20 to 40 deg farenhite

I use it in a three car garage(720 sq ft) to take the chill off when I'm working out there. It works out quite well for me. I like it and myself I think it would heat a 20x13 room.

The 60000 btu would work great. It is over sized but for the priceit is worth it. I have 750 sq ft garage with 12ft ceiling and it heats it up fast. Less strain on the unit.

This is a wonderful heater. I have a 32x12 work shop it keeps the whole building warm.

Our room in the basement is approximately 20x25 and it heats it very well. It pretty much helps the whole basement (700 sqft) feel warmer. Irea

Yes on the switch. The size of the garage is the factor you have to calculate. My shop is 16x24 insulated and from 40 degrees to 60 takes about 20 min when the outside temp is -25 degrees.

It will heat an 800 sq ft room in just a few minutes and keep it warm without much effort. I have not tried it in a larger room but, I am sure it would easily heat a two car garage with no problem.

I do not think you can expect this heater to heat an entire garage (if you are from a northern state), but it will create a nice warm "spot" if that is what you want.

I use it in a 10 x 30' x 10' ceiling screened in patio and it's perfect. Don't know how big your garage is, but with your 25' ceiling you might want to consider a slightly larger one, maybe 50,000 but even with a ceiling exhaust I would still crack open your garage door an inch or two to be on the safe side. The heater is a little louder than I expected, but isn't bothersome to me. I think all of them are louder, kinda like a tiny jet engine. You'll want to use a 20# propane tank at LEAST! Hope this is useful.

Given its range and specs, it will most likely, in my opinion, heat a small part of the garage space. If you are working on your vehicle and directing it to your workspace, it will do an okay job.

I use it in a 24x28 garage. I do work in the garage in the winter and it will keep it at 70-75 degrees. I was usi9ng milk house heaters before and they kept burning out the thermostats . For me this heater works great. Lloyd Jones

I doubt this heater has the capacity to heat even a small space in a garage. We bought it to heat a well pump which is in a 3 ft diameter pit maybe 2 ft deep. It works great for an application like that but I think there are better solutions out there for you.

I bought two to heat a barely insulated garage in the PNW where temperatures are generally mild. If the temperature is between 40 and 50 then only one unit can keep the garage at about 60 or which is a comfortable temperature for shop work. If the temp is between 30 and 40 then I'll run both of them and will get the same 60 degrees. It never really gets below 30 here so I can't answer that.

I have mine in a garage that's about 730 sq ft and it is not vented and there are no issues. The cost I have not calculated but it depends on how warm you want to keep the area. I just want to keep my garage around 45 degree so the water lines don't freeze.

Lol, given it is a garage heater yes it works. It heats my 440 sq foot 2 car garage with ease it has insulation in the ceiling. However it requires a 240v 30 amp outlet. Should be ok with no insulation too. It will surprise you - should maintain 65-70 degrees on high with no insulation in temps to around 20. I usually keep it on half thermostat to take the chill off unless I'm working on a project, then I turn it way up and heats the 440 sq ft garage to 70-75 in about 10 minutes from 50. Will work just fine for your small room. Keep the thermostat on auto and desired temp if using constantly as this should help with your electric bill.

I have in a room in the garage that is 8x20ft and no problem in getting this room to 70F, takes about 10 minutes and stays there until I shut it off. Have seen other comments about this heater for room sizes up to 200 sq ft.

Not sure. It should heat a 20' x 20' room very well. You also can take it off "Auto" and it will run all the time and not try to get to its set temp. If the air coming off the machine while it is running isn't hot, then your unit is defective.
