Benefits of Installing a Garage or Workshop Heater

In areas that experience extreme cold like Minneapolis, having a garage or workshop heater installed can make a world of difference. Here’s how:

  • Damage prevention: In extreme cold, engines can have difficulty starting, and tools or machinery can become brittle and prone to damage. A heated garage protects your vehicles and equipment, ensuring they remain in optimal working condition.
  • Comfortable environment: For those who use their garage or workshop for hobbies, projects, or work, a heater provides a comfortable environment, allowing you to continue your activities without the discomfort of freezing temperatures.
  • Storage protection: Many items stored in garages, such as paints, chemicals, and other materials, can be damaged by freezing temperatures. A heater helps maintain a stable temperature, protecting these items from the cold.
  • Energy efficiency: Modern garage heaters are designed to be energy-efficient, which can reduce overall heating costs. By maintaining a warmer garage, the heat can also seep into adjacent living spaces, reducing the need to run your home’s heating system at higher levels.
Customer Review

"Josh was the third person on a garage heater install I had done today, along with Dan and Logan. We had brief interactions during the install because all three were very hard working and focused on their job. Josh was very knowledgeable when I did have questions and spent extra time before he left to answer any additional questions I had and offer some tips for continued efficiency. Taking that little bit of extra time helps someone like me, who knows nothing about hvac/heating/gas, really makes a big difference."

Garage Heater FAQs

How long do garage heaters last before needing to be replaced?

Garage heaters typically last between 10 to 20 years, depending on the type, usage, and maintenance they receive.

What size garage heater do I need?

The size of the garage heater you need depends on the garage’s square footage and insulation; generally, a heater with a capacity of 30 to 60 BTUs per square foot is recommended for well-insulated garages.

Can a patio heater be used in a garage?

Technically, yes, but we do NOT recommend it. A few things to keep in mind: First, the patio heater must be properly ventilated so it doesn’t overheat and cause a fire. Second, it must be placed away from any flammable materials, such as gasoline or other chemicals. Lastly, it’s important to have a fire extinguisher on hand in case of an emergency.

Customer Satisfaction is our #1 Priority What Dean’s Customers are saying
I recently bought a new house and quite a few things needed upgrading / replacing. Deans has done fantastic work on all these things. Scheduling is fast and easy. They are able to come out quickly to assess it and give an estimate. And they can quickly schedule the service. All the technicians have been fantastic. Friendly, and quick and efficient. I am so glad I am a member and I will recommend Deans to anyone. Mark B.
Matthew came for a general plumbing inspection. He was friendly and polite and even a little bit early for his appointment. That is a wonderful thing. He checked all the toilets and sinks, the water heater and water softener. All the while explaining what he was doing. He had some ideas on a few repairs but wasn't an alarmist about it. Things that just had to be done, sooner than later, but not immediately. The Dean's club membership is definitely worth it. Susan M.
Eric B was awesome and informative. Today he came and gave us a rundown of our new homes air ventilation and Furnace/AC systems so we are all ready for winter and beyond. We had Dean's install a new furnace, ac and water heater at our previous home and they did such a wonderful job and so easy to work with we will only use them from now on. Thanks again for a wonderful experience. Jayme K.
I had Dean's come out a couple times for different services. Once to install venting for a bath fan and once for service for my furnace. There were no surprises in pricing and service was quick. Sam was the tech both times and he did a great job for both jobs. For the furnace, he diagnosed the issue within minutes of starting the work and got it up and running quickly. They had all the parts in the truck already. As far as the appointment, I requested service online, had a call back within 15 min and the tech was in my driveway an hour later. I would highly recommend Dean's. Dan P.
Of the several electricians I contacted, Dean's offered by far the quickest dispatch time, which is great because my thermostat broke and wouldn't start my A/C at all. Given that temperatures are supposed to reach 98 degrees tomorrow, time was of the essence. Thankfully, Dean's had someone out within an hour. I worked with Seth, who was professional, helpful and knowledgeable. He ran a 'C' wire to our new smart thermostat and got it installed in about an hour at a reasonable price. I will definitely recommend Dean's to anyone who needs an electrician. Michael Y.
