I have an attached 2 floor 2 car garage that was built about 100 years ago, here in New Hampshire... It's balloon framed, and the second floor joists sit on a 1 x 4 set into the Studs, which run from the ground to the gabled roof. (It's pretty cool.)
I need to heat the first floor. I have a full size propane grill in there, which I can simply turn on to supply some heat...
1) Is there any reason why I shouldn't do this? Do you think it will heat the space from 0 degrees F up to 40 degrees F?2) Is there something I can do to help old the heat in? Perhaps plastic on the floor above to hold the air in? The entire barn is uninsulated.
Thanks for your thoughts
