Go to their web site and do a search on heaters. You'll get several to choose from. I think I got item number 45604.
It has been 0-20 degrees here. My garage is attached to the house so it stays around 40 degrees with no heat. I have a little insulation in the attic, but none in the walls-just sheetrock over 2x4 studs. The thermostat has settings from 1-5. I run it on 2 and it warms the garage 25-30 degrees within an hour.
I mounted it about chest high on the wall. It would really heat better mounted closer to the floor, but I thought I might reduce the chance of spilled flamables getting to the pilot.
It produces a little bit of odor, but it is not noticeable once work starts in the garage.
