Firstly, choose which fuel source you prefer. There are electric wall heaters, propane wall heaters, and natural gas wall heaters.

With propane, it will work regardless if you power is on or you have natural gas, while the electric and natural gas is going to save extra trips to the store.

Secondly, you can plan your design. What areas do you want to heat? How large is the area you are attempting to heat? Simple advice, the larger the area the more heaters you will need, obviously.
