The growing season is starting to wind down here in Michigan and the first signs of fall are beginning to show. Although it may be a little early, I'm already looking into a new heater that will be more effective than my old one (a small portable heater). I'm going to get up a 12x10x10 greenhouse before the first freeze hits and I am defiantly going to need to heat it for the upcoming winter. The greenhouse is made up of 6mm twin wall polycarbonate and it should provide a decent amount of insulation (I may make some modifications for additional insulation). The average low in winter here is 15 degrees and it can sometimes drop into the negative digits on very cold nights. I was taking a look at this heater, what do you guys think? Too little? Too much? I'm trying to keep the temperature between 45 and 55 degrees and I was hoping that it would do the job. If anyone has a recommendation for another heater, feel free to share it!
