Yes this is a very common application for HydraBarrrier's. As a matter of fact we have many customers that leave HydraBarrier's out throughout the winter months and go through multiple cycles of freezing temperatures. In cases like this we recommend that the HydraBarrier's are not filled to capacity so there is room for expansion as the water freezes. Another alternative is to add an eco-friendly anti-freeze in the water, common brand names include Amsoil or Sierra that use propylene glycol as their active ingredient

Walt, it depends on how cold your garage gets. You didn't state how insulated the area is or if the garage is attached. My garage is a large 3 car attached and well insulated garage with a 12' ceiling. When we are in the low teens (rarely) the temperature in the garage drops to the mid forty's. I'll turn the unit on in the morning and it takes about an hour to bring it up to the upper 50's. Eventually I'll run it till it hits the mid 60's and keep it there throughout the day. If your room is near 0 degrees or poorly insulated, you will need a much bigger heater. Wenatchee sounds pretty cold.... Walt, it depends on how cold your garage gets.

This broom could do that job well. When you bring it inside, keep it where melting snow won't damage anything.

I would think this should work fine. I have used this for several years with no issues in hot or cold weather.

We live in Eastern NC so this may not help if you live in Syracuse NY but we accumulated about 3-4 inches of snow this winter and it worked just fine. We also have it buried about 6" into the soil. I would imagine if it works through the soil the snow shouldn't be an issue.

We are in the south, but I would think it would be the same for the north - keep a watch on it, and remove snow from it as soon as possible - don't let it sit on it for prolonged periods. Jakedogs2 is probably the best/smartest answer, if you can do that.

Mine only gets warm enough to melt the snow which only has to be above 32 F, it does not get very warm but it does work.

This is a very good heater, but 37 foot is also a pretty good distance. I would say yes unless it got very cold, then it might not do the job as you want.What is very cold to me is low 30's and down into the 20's.I live in Ga. and thats what I call pretty cold. t. gray

It all depends on how warm you want it. If you just need to chase away the chill, it'll do fine. If you want it 80/90 degrees, it might not. I only use them to prevent freezing in garden tunnels, they just barely do it but that's all I need.

Mine is in the garage, and it worked fine all winter (in New England) - and the garage is not heated. If kept outdoors, it might be an issue. Hope this helps. Great vacuum.

I use mine in my milk house. I live in WI so the temps are below zero many nights during the winter. My milk house is about the size of a one car garage, so I would say this would work very well for you.

Bill - we have used it in cold weather with very good results (32 degrees and above), but not sure about performance in sub zero weather. Sorry we couldn't be of more help. Have you called the manufacturer for input?

I have one in the garage and it works great out there. In Michigan we have very cold weather.

I used mine all winter long in the basement here in central il. Havent had any issues and the thing works great! Ive unplugged it a few times but for the most part it runs 24/7. I know for sure it ran alright around 50°f maybe lower.

yes, just make sure the temp difference between outside and inside isn't great. Like is shouldn't be freezing outside

The winter package isn't on my unit. You have to buy it separately. Ask your local installer whether you need it in your climate. Mine worked fine in 30-35-degree weather.
