Heating the Garage

m1keyp · 20-Dec-2005, 22:29

Maybe a stupid question but..................................

Was thinking about making working on the bike a little more comfortable (warmer) in the garage.

Warm air blowers require ventilation etc.

Any advice will be gratefully received

Front room should be warm enough this time of year

Tumble dryer

I should not have asked

What ever you do it must be constant. Maybe better to just leave it in a "dry" enviorment friendly atmospere than a artifitial warm one that may cause condensation if it goes hot /cold etc. Wear a wooly pully ,when you work on the bike 4D

good one Fordie, thats why AK has to 'wrap up' when working on the bikes in the winter

Mind you, this week, he is mostly in someone elses garage doing 2 DD bikes (not ours!) for next year

- I hope he is finished by the end of the week tho

DON'T have any heat in there...... It brings out the spiders

I've got a ruddy HUGE one that's made a web all over me light switch.

I can only go in there during daylight hours now

convecter heater, nice dry heat, LPG gives off loads of condensation
