It is a covered porch. I got a 120V 1500W space heater to test out and I know if I got 2 more them, it wouldn't do diddly.
I'm looking into having a electrician come run 2 240v outlets and getting these now:
If you are going to get an electrician to run the wiring, personally I wouldn't make them outlets or at least hide the outlets. They are going to mounted up high right? I guess an outlet probably makes sense, but I'd try to hide the outlet and wiring behind the heater. Not just have a cord runnings 10ft from the wall type of thing.

I might even really decide to spend some money and make them flush mount.

Sealed oil filled portable heaters do a great job

Costco sells some heaters that are 120v and project heat. You should check into them, they work great.

I have a little 10k BTU radiant kerosene heater, will put out plenty of heat and is silent. Can get 25k BTU versions too. Even going with the highly-refined KleneHeat fuel the are pretty economical to run. Add in a bit of kero-clean to keep the wick clean and they are practically maintenance free.
