110 will limit you to 1500 watts, a regular space heater, and they’re all the same essentially. Likely not enough to heat that up in any reasonable time. A 240 circuit will get you commercial garage heater capability like this.

What’s the benefit that IR heaters have over something like this: Dr. Heater DR966 240-volt Hardwired Shop Garage Commercial Heater, 3000-watt/6000-watt, DR966 240V https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00HS8FZAC/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_glt_fabc_ZE5MFY6VBSNJ058A8TTK?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1

I’m not sure what type of heating it is but it has much better reviews in terms of reliability and quality over its infrared cousin.

Ah, I forgot to edit my post–my mind has been changed by a fellow Redditor here; I’m convinced 240V is the way to go for me at the moment, so it’s propane versus 240V.

The only issue that I have with propane is the constant need for ventilation due to N2O and CO buildup in the environment. For that reason, I’d rather avoid gases of any kind…

I’m thinking of this: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00HS8FZAC/ref=crt_ewc_title_oth_1?ie=UTF8&psc=1&smid=ATVPDKIKX0DER Do you know if IR heating is “the best” or something or how it compares to other heater types? I know I need a fan-forced to spread the air around the garage, definitely not going fanless.
