temperature control

hey everyone i have the darkroom 240, about 8 feet by 8 feet. anyway im thinking about using it in a garage in the winter and was wondering about temperature control "using a heater in it".
i know i would need an atmospheric controller but do any of you have any ideas for what type of heater i would want to use or know of a good heater to use etc? i dont want my room getting below 70 degrees in the winter.

Go with a gas garage heater. It will raise the Co2 significantly, and in most places gas is cheaper than electric.

But I would rather heat my home with the grow lights.

would a propane gas heater work? i have easy access to propane. what i mean by "would a propane gas heater work? is, is there a way to use a atmospheric controller with it to turn it on and off? i know that may be a dumb question but i dont know much about gas heaters. i need something that will run on its own. also shouldnt i get something for inside the tent instead of the garage itself? i dont know what would be best so all info is appreciated.

actually i could probably just use a thermostat instead of environmental controler, it would be easier. so i think i answered my own question. anyone have any opinions on brand of gas heaters?
