I’ve recently started my own business in finish carpentry and plan to turn my unfinished attatched garage into a shop. I’m looking for any advice on heater choices. I would like to stick to electric. I have a 22×24 garage in South Dakota where there is often below 0 weather during the winter. Concerns I have is cost, effeciency, noncombustible. Any advice is greatly appreciated.

The first place to start is with the articles we've published on the subject.
Here's a link to the most recent:

Because our office are in the cold Northeast, several editors here have dealt with this issue first hand with their own shops. I'm going to poll some folks and get back to you with anything I find out.
