I would suggest that an electric heater is a better bet for this purpose than a gas or paraffin heater. Both of these latter produce water as a product of combustion and so would contribute to the dampness problem. An electric heater, of course, has no products of combustion! As someone else has suggested, a small low-power oil-filled radiator seems the best bet.

Why in the hell would you do that!! Even putting a heater in there if it tips over and catches fire..what a horrible death..Why did you get a dog to freeze it to death outside?? Do you wear a winter coat?? Do you have the heat on in the house when it's cold?? Do you sleep under the covers where it's nice and cozy?? Your dog deserves better.Why have a dog to leave it in a cold shed,give it away,do the poor thing a favor and give it tp someone that will love him and treat him as he should be treated.Your awful

A little propane heater, just use the tank off the grill, if you want temporary heat while you are in the shed. If you need to keep it a minimum temperature even when not in the shed, electric heater.

Hi,
I agree with Brian.
I've found that a small paraffin stand alone heater thing is much the best bet. Got my green one for the winter at about £10, and is proving better than the oil filled, tubular electric powered jobs.
For a smallish greenhose.
Twist it up of down, according to local temperature, fill it up, and away you go for days & nights..
Easy & better.

If you are on a low tariff night time electricity and are a frequent shed used, Electric Storage heaters can be economic. Second hand storage heaters can often be picked up free of charge.
A dehumidifier is very useful to prevent metal woodworking tools from rusting. (Metalwork tools can just be oiled.)

Thermovent or Dimplex Tubular Heaters, 30 or 60 watts per foot, various lengths available or oill filled radiator as suggested. Dont know if you mean low cost to run or buy, but the same heat/energy will cost you the same anyway.

If you mean damp its just the condensation collecting on your stuff. Cold air holds less moisture. The water gets squeezed out as the air cools and contracts. I'd use a dehumidifier instead of a heater.

We used a four foot long baseboard (free-standing) heater, and we lived where it reached 38 below zero...It kept our things in the shed toasty, as we had a washer/dryer in it, and a refrigerator...We have moved since then, but it only added pennies to our electric bill...

there are several blow-type fan heaters and 'rads' which can be set very low and are safe to leave in your shed to keep the temperature just - right for your purpose.

I hate it when everthing gets da. It is such a pain to remove the da once it gets on stuff. I was once in a car that was totally da. It took weeks and weeks to get the da out. That da is tough stubborn stuff.
One morning last summer I woke up to find I was totally covered in da! You can imagine my horror. Hopped in the shower, but felt even more da! Last year I formed the Anit-Da League, figuring I could make a few bucks off da, but no-one joined. Then I tried to register a website dedicated to da, but www.da.com was taken. I hate when that happens
:-D
