Heating a cold room

My cold room is fine for Lagers right now but I need to warm it up. It seems to be holding at 62 degrees but it's going to get colder as winter comes upon us.
Any suggestions for warming up a cold room and stabilizing the temperature?

A couple of oil filled electric radiators with a circulator fan would probably do the trick.

You always look like you have a cold sweat.

How big of a room? How well insulated?

My fermentation closet is heated by a $20 small space heater and it works fine.

It's a 6 X 9 with R-30 in the walls and ceiling.

He did just have a bucket of water thrown on him.

Walmart has a little electric space heater with fan for $9. That oughta take the chill out.

Electric space heater rigged to a johnson temp controller set to heating mode.

Bump on the electric heater paired with the Johnson Control, keep the stat away from the heat source. I'm an A/C guy and that's what I'd do..

I looked up the controller and see that the digital will go hot or cold. I have an analog controller on my keezer which only works on the cold side of things. Sounds like a plan, thanks.

Picked up an area heater at CostCo this weekend and so far on the 2nd lowest setting it holds the room at 65 degrees.

Rather than heating an entire room, you should look into getting a big bin, filling it with water, and controlling it with an aquarium thermometer. Ought to be cheaper in the long run.

It's a 4.5 X 8.5 fermentation room with multiple fermentation vessels in it. That'd be a lot of water to heat.
