Our take
The MHU50 one size up for a large or leaky building: 64,000 BTU/h output. In an insulated two- or three-car garage it's more than you need and cycles.
50% more heat than the CZ220 with a 45-95°F digital thermostat, remote and timer. Its LOW is still 6,250 W, so in a smaller garage it mostly cycles at near full power, and it needs a 40 A circuit.

Installation and service by a qualified installer, service agency or the gas supplier, per the manual.
1-year warranty; after 30 days the heater ships to World and Main freight prepaid. Comfort Zone's product page says it needs a 240V plug; the manual says hardwired, and there's no plug in the box.
