Garage Unit Heaters from Reznor and Modine

Many homeowners are moving toward heating their garages, both for the safety benefits and the extra space. Should you heat your garage? Check out the top reasons why this has become a popular trend!

Avoid Harmful Damage

Freezing temperatures are not good for many things you might be keeping in your garage. Heating your garage will prevent the following harmful effects of cold on your possessions:

Car Won’t Start — Keeping your vehicle in a cold garage can mean mornings when it won’t start. Freezing temperatures can kill car batteries and damage other parts.
Frozen Pipes — If you have exposed pipes in your unheated garage, you risk freezing, bursting, and flooding.
Spoiled Food & Drink — When the liquids in food and drinks freeze, they expand, sometimes breaking their containers. This exposes them to the air, causing them to spoil.
Broken Appliances — Any appliances you keep in an unheated garage are at risk of damage to their components.
Cold Pets — Do not keep your pets in a cold garage! They will be uncomfortable and could get sick!

Make it Comfortable

There are many things you could be doing with the extra space in the garage; heating your garage opens up the following exciting opportunities.

Auto Repairs — The garage is the #1 place for home auto repairs in the winter. Keep it warm to avoid stiff fingers, joints, and complaints that keep you from getting the job done!
Hobby Projects — Garages can be great spaces for hobby projects in the winter. Heat your garage to free up space for your latest craft!
Recreation — A garage is large enough to hold a tennis table or for the kids to run around for hours. Keep it heated for extra space to run off the winter blues!
Home Storage — Once a garage has been heated, it becomes valuable storage space for the extra knickknacks, holiday decorations, and clutter around the house!
Exercise Equipment — Heat your garage and put your exercise equipment there for winter workouts. You’ll love your newfound exercise location!
Extra Space — Heated garages are great places for additional space, whether you want to store items, work on projects, or renovate to create a new bedroom or apartment!
Starting a Business — How often have you heard someone started their business “out of the garage?” If you are considering starting a business, heat your garage for extra space!

Protect your Home

Heated garages also protect the rest of the home from the cold, providing an extra buffer between the house and the outside, eliminating drafts. This is also desirable for most homeowners. Because maintaining a heated garage prevents damage to your home, it becomes a valuable asset and increases the value of your home for potential buyers in the future.

Fresh Air Systems, Energy and Heat Recovery Ventilators

Schwantes offers a full line of HRV, ERV, and fresh air systems. These ventilators are popular solutions for addressing IAQ issues, and additional benefits include more consistent ventilation and humidity control.

Zone Systems

There is no better way to add comfort to your home than a zone system. Temperature Zoning divides your house into different zones or areas and then heats or cools them as needed. It’s an ideal way to eliminate hot and cold spots. Plus, zoning systems save energy by heating and cooling only the areas of your home that you’re using.

Our Comfort Specialists can help identify whether your home is a candidate for zoning and recommend how best to incorporate a new zone system into your home.

Packaged Systems

Packaged systems refer to the units’ self-contained nature, with all the necessary components to heat, cool, and vent the appliance in a single cabinet. Homes with little space for indoor units will appreciate that we install these units outside.

Gas Electric Packaged Systems switch between gas and electricity fuel sources for maximum efficiency. Not only are you saving space by having everything in one bundle, but you’ll also know you’re conserving energy and lowering your utility costs.

Heat Pump Packaged Systems are all-electric to reduce emissions and lower energy costs with use. Discover the benefits of heat pump packaged systems with Schwantes and enjoy reliable performance and comfort throughout the seasons.

Infrared Heaters

Infrared heaters are typically used in commercial or industrial spaces but are now available in certain residential applications. They transfer infrared heat to people and objects, maintaining a comfortable temperature without wasting energy by warming the surrounding air. Schwantes works with Detroit Radiant to provide a complete line of radiant Infrared Tube Heaters, as well as high—and low-intensity infrared space and patio heaters.
