Martin3203 Posted November 30, 2015 Posted November 30, 2015 So with the cold weather coming up, I'm sure there are guys like myself that can't smoke in the house. What do you do for the cold winter months, do you have a set up outside to keep you warm while you enjoy your favorite stogie? Sent from my SM-G928V using Tapatalk
irratebass Posted November 30, 2015 Posted November 30, 2015 I bought a heater for the garage last black Friday, and insulated my garage door, which will be my man cave.....it's still an ongoing process. Up next is a smoke eater then some area rugs & new furniture. 1

Nrengle Posted November 30, 2015 Posted November 30, 2015 I have a bonus room above my garage that is my theater/video gaming room. It becomes the smokin lounge in the winter. Crack the window turn on a fan and suck the smoke out and turn on a heater for some warmth, and the. Odor bomb after a really heavy session with friends.
Martin3203 Posted November 30, 2015 Author Posted November 30, 2015 I got a patio heater and tried to enclose a section on my porch last year, worked alright, still had to bundle up. Ended up giving the heater to a friend so I need to derive a new plan for this year. Sent from my SM-G928V using Tapatalk
skalls Posted November 30, 2015 Posted November 30, 2015 Have an electric space heater for my garage, which only really warms up everything within 3 feet of it when I reload ammo in the winter. Fire that thing up and sit next to it and it would keep me warm enough to enjoy most cigars. Not sure I'm interested in having double coronas/double robustos in the winter though.

ElPuro Posted November 30, 2015 Posted November 30, 2015 Going to use a three seasons room I am now renovating with the Big Buddy propane heater (indoor safe) coupled with hepa air filter and then an ozone generator after the room is clear of ppl.

How long does it last on a tank of gas? Sent from my SM-G928V using Tapatalk
ElPuro Posted December 1, 2015 Posted December 1, 2015 Depends on how high you set the heat. I bought the 20 lb tank adapter (no need for a separate filter if you do btw) and have used it for a number of smokes already. I have probably used half a tank. Overall pretty good in terms of propane useage. Make sure to get the fan adapter or you will burn money on batteries. I like it so far. Much better than electric heat but had its limitations. I will probably bring out a reddy heater to instnantly heat the room, then use the buddy to keep it up. Not sure about the smell from the reddy heater, though.

Washingtonskinnies Posted December 1, 2015 Posted December 1, 2015 Pop up tent on the deck with the tarp sides. Fire up a kerosene heater inside, but it's still chilly
Drguano Posted December 1, 2015 Posted December 1, 2015 I use a combination of cats and radiant heat with very mixed results... 3

Martin3203 Posted December 1, 2015 Author Posted December 1, 2015 Cats for heat, at least you know they won't run out of gas or stop working when the power goes out. Sent from my SM-G928V using Tapatalk 1
JoeyGunz Posted December 1, 2015 Posted December 1, 2015 Smoke on my commutes in my car, although I think this winter I might turn to pipes a little more in which case I don't mind being out in the cold with one. Plenty of lounges / sampling shops e.t.c available it's just trying to find the spare time over this period!
capitalpg Posted December 1, 2015 Posted December 1, 2015 Living in Northeast (Boston) tough staying outdoors as indoors isn't an option for me at home. However, space heater in the garage with door partially open does the trick in a pinch. It does get cold, so I keep the smoke to a robusto or smaller....
Martin3203 Posted December 1, 2015 Author Posted December 1, 2015 Trying to convince my wife to let me smoke in the basement. Sent from my SM-G928V using Tapatalk 1
Troels Posted December 1, 2015 Posted December 1, 2015 Extra layer of clothing, pot of tea. Low situated terrace with a roof in the back of the garden shelters from Wind and rain. Works good enough for me - thin gloves when needed. Like the winter season a lot. A crisp night with frost is equally enjoyable as a hot summer night.
luv2fly Posted December 1, 2015 Posted December 1, 2015 Garage is my only place. If not too cold, fire pit works but I am funny about the cold. Don't like it at all. 1
perkinke Posted December 2, 2015 Posted December 2, 2015 I bought a temporary greenhouse (plastic cover and powder coated steel pipe frame) and a propane heater a couple years ago and that does remarkably well, even when we went below zero F last year for a week. Have plans to add some insulation to the roof and sides of the budget allows.
Kbb Posted December 2, 2015 Posted December 2, 2015 Temp dictates clothing layers. Then I get a fold out canvas chair. I lay a cheap, washable electric blanket on the chair. Set the blanket to high and then sit. Depending on weather this can be done in garage or porch. Just need an extension cord. Keeps the heat on me and no fumes from a heater. Makes for a comfy, warm chair. Store the blanket in the garage and wash it as needed. Works pretty well so far. 1
