Put on your thinking caps for this one. I need a creative solution.

I am fortunate to have a small storage closet in which to set up my air
brush, paint booth and all that stuff. The closet is a storage room off the
carport of our home.

Six or eight months out of the year this works fine. The low this week was
14 degrees F. Makes it uncomfortable to stay out there for very long and is
a poor environment for the paint.

My question: How can I heat this area? Preferably without spending a lot
of money (new ducting on an already over taxed HVAC system) or blowing
myself to kingdom come (space heater). The two exterior walls and the door
are uninsulated.

A friend suggested installing a heat lamp. Any other suggestions?

Thanks,

Don F. Moss
