I have not installed those exact ones per say, but looking at the electrical requirements, it don't look like it heats up a large area very well and takes between 9 to 13 amps to do it. Best thing to do with any heater in a garage area is to dedicated the 12-2 wire to the panel, with a GFCI plug or GFCI breaker. A lot of fires in houses are started with space heaters that are plugged in to improper areas or old wiring. I might get one that has built in safety features. Might really save you in the long run.
