Chill now/ Heat later
« on: August 22, 2010, 06:34:08 AM »
I finally got my new garage wired and now installed the A/C Heater unit, only thing left is to insulate and finish but that will take some time. I now can work in my shop/garage in all weather. The unit is 220 electric so it should do a good job, but now where does the car go ???

Wes,  it's 20' X 20' so the 12,000 btu is listed as the right size.

with the new laser I need it cool (cold) when I do my thing, so I just put in a 25,000 BTU in my garage
and when it's in the upper 90's outside that thing keeps it at 72 ;)
Thank you and God Bless

When you insulate, put up the best.  The local home supply didn't have what I wanted.  I wanted the silver faced insulation.  Put up the paper backed stuff full depth of the 2 by's.  Then code says I had to put flame retardet material over it.  Shop looks good and as stated a tarp over the car and leave it outside.   LL~ LL~

Leester,

Good luck with your shop. Mine is 12 x 14 and is insulated and panel. I only need a floor type heater as it doesn't get really cold down here in Florida. Wait a minute it got cold last winter, did I forget? Well anyway the heater did the job. Flying down here in Stuart was greatly reduced due to the cold. Best of luck with your new cave.
