Having said that, there are a few variables. If you go with gas, you will need to have it vented to the outside. If you have a way to vent it, the gas is probably going to be cheaper to operate. There are some ventless gas heaters on the market, but I would not trust them in a tight space such as a basement. If you do not have a way to vent the gas, you will have to go with the electric. We recently needed to add heat to a similar space, and bought an electric fireplace, which has a heater built into it. Works like charm, and we have the added beauty of the fireplace. (New ones look very real). Good luck. <br><b>References : </b><br> The installation cost would be about the same. Having said that, there are a few variables.

If you have close access to a gas line and the electric panel is far (like upstairs or in a garage) then the gas is cheaper. If your electric panel is in the basement then electric would be cheaper.
