    I am using a spare bedroom, laminate wood floors.  Double windows that I have not had to insulate yet as we still have warm weather.  I will insulate with plastic on the windows in the next few weeks.  I purchased a plastic door sweep for the bottom of the bedroom door, $3.  the room is 14×14.  Standard ceilings, 8-10feet?

    I turn the heater on 1-1.5hours before I want to start and the humidifier right when I start or 15min before.  that will vary depending on the time of year and humidity in the air, but now that I have a feel for it all, i think I will be able to gauge when to turn each on prior to starting.

    Thank you for offering all your wisdom and support to this amazing practice…it has been life changing for me!!!

    Hi,

    I have been working to set up my home studio also.  I have spent hours searching the internet and these forums for the best heater that will not shut off as I also like the heat.  Unbelievable, but I found the best heater at Walmart!  it is by Mainstays(Walmart brand) and it is a Quartz Infrared, cost approx. $80.  If you turn it on it says 85, but in the instructions it tells you the default temp is 104 if you put it to “on”.  I did this and my indoor humidity/temp thermometer(Amazon, $12) registered 100 degrees after it was on for an hour, it does not shut off when temp met.  I also bought a humidifier(PureGuardian on Amazon, $80) and it all works GREAT.

    Hope this helps and saves many of you the time and effort I put into this!

    Love practicing at home! Saves time and money and I can use Gabrielle’s DVD!!!!
