    Keepng warm

    I want to spend a good part of the weeend in my small 8x10 darkroom but it will be quite cold. Looking for an efficient,safe way to warm the room up a little and make it comfortable. What do you guys use?

    Cheers

    Like Richard suggested or you could install an electric baseboard heater.

    I have a thermostatic controlled baseboard heater that does a fairly good job. A small electric space heater suppliments it in really cold weather, but it stirs up some dust.

    My bathroom is my darkroom, so I just turn up the heat.

    It depends on what kind of a situation you have. If you don't have a lot of electric power going to your darkroom, you might want to consider a propane heater. You'll need incoming fresh air, though.

    How about bottle of Cognac and a big fur coat with a couple of Frank's models underneath to snuggle with?

    I have one of those little oil filed electric heaters that you can wheel around. Works well. Mine is similar to the one in the attached pic. My darkroom is about the same size as yours.

    I use what Andrew uses, and it keeps my unheated, basement darkroom toasty....
