Just at 4000 btu's in here it better be in 30's or lower before turning on the propane heater I have now which is less than 2kw of heat and have yet to fully insulate this place. Take the btu's of heater you have now if it is propane and divide it by .29 to get roundabout estimate on kw's you need in heat. All on another note I might skip installing this Chinese specialty due to it is for 12v I'm running 24v when I flip the switch on here in next week and I don't want to have to drop voltage for anything if possible.
