Tack room renovation

[Steerpike]

I am fed up of having a damp nasty tack room I can not use in the winter, all my tack gets brought home to the delight of my husband!
We are going to renovate it in the summer, put in a false ceiling and insulation but my question is I would like some heating, does anyone know the best type of heating to use in a tack room, I have electric to the barn, or could get a gas fire but worried about leaving them for any length of time in case of fire as I do not live on site.

Look at what sort garden centres sell for greenhouses. One yard I was on had a row of large pipes like a giant radiator, it was electric and gave gentle heat out... was also great for drying wet gloves and socks on ! I would not consider any form of gas\ paraffin heaters as they produce condensation and make damp worse.. you need gentle heat from elec source

I never thought of those, thank you!
