JustBob, Yes, the telephone, internet and cable are run to a central hub. The hub is in a cabinet in the finished basement. The video is hooked up to a video module, the telephone to another module and internet to a module and then to a wired router and then to a wireless router. The...

Since so many of you have a vast knowledge base on a wide area of topics I thought I would throw this one out there. I am in the process of building a new home. I have wired every bedroom and the entertainment area with RG-6 and CAT 6 wiring. I have also put ceiling speakers in the dining...

What about the short sleeve shirt with the logo? David

I wasn't trying to circumvent the more logical way of doing things. Just trying to get a rough estimate so I don't go walking into the meeting with a white flag and take whatever I get as an answer. Thanks for the replies though!

Thanks everyone for the replies. So here goes the detailed list. Four bedroom house. 3300 square feet on a ranch with a 3300 square foot basement. The basement will have a lot of storage and probably half living space. The basement will be heated with radiant and the upstairs heated with...

If you electrical guys were to build a house and a big garage and maybe a barn one day, what amp would you run to the main structure? Any ideas on how to outline the ideas? :shocking: Any and all help appreciated. David

I'll take one of each. XL for me as well. Any update to the logo on the back? David

Window problems. Join the crowd. Like another person said, "new wood windows are not going to last 100 years." I have to agree. Remember that a century ago we mainly used old growth trees for building. Today we use, well, not old growth trees. Pine is not 100 year old oak, trust me. I...

Have a great time! Sounds like a wonderful barn. Wish I was closer to help. Best wishes, David

As some of you know I am building my home and plan on having a 29x42 ft garage. At some point I wish to have a barn about 40x60. I called our local electrical supplier and he asked a question I haven't thought about; what amps do you want...200, 300, 400? I don't have a clue. I guessed 300...

Are there any cattle in the area? How about an old barn? Where there is livestock there are flies. Wishing you the best since flies drive me nuts!

Wuboring, I guess I'm a little confused. I thought Foamular 250 was the foam of choice for any garage or basement slab with radiant. Is there a different Foamular that is used in the garage versus the basement? Does Foamular 250 come in a different color? I'm trying to figure this out since...

Hello everyone! Good garage days to you all. I have a few questions for the "professional" people on this site. I intend to put radiant in slab in my new basement. I looked at Crete Heat and it costs too much money. So I will be putting down a vapor barrier, Foamular 250, and then the steel...

Thanks Friartuck. The layout of the pex is still in the theoretical stage. Just now putting in the road and the bridge to the property. Don't see the ACTUAL building of the site till hopefully later in the summer. The 18 inches of snow really doesn't help the timeline. I plan on using a...

Possum, thanks for the reply. MN, good to know Manards has such a good price. Little far away, but given my order size it might be an option. Friartuck, good name. Chris...Thanks for the information regarding the 250 and load applications. The $21 quote came from this site. I do not...
