maxpat82, what did you pay per panel of that and what size did you use (looks like crete-heat) feel free to PM me

yeldogt, that information is helpful. I will have R17.5 on the side of the slab and R10 underneath. I also thought the less loops and wider spacing might not be what I want (albeit larger tubing). I was planning 8 300' loops of 1/2 originally.

I have a 40x60 pole barn that I am doing a slab in this summer. I plan on doing a radiant setup. I received a quote for 6 300' loops of 7/8" pex spaced at 16". That seems odd to me, I was under the impression that 1/2" pex spaced 12" would be the norm (2400ft of tubing in a 2400sp ft slab). Less...

40x60x16 Last year with 1OH 1 man door was 36k. Was quoted 15k for a 6" floor. I'm currently acquiring materials from menards to do an insulated slab with fiberglass rebar, pex etc, so I'll be much higher on concrete when its all said and done. But use it for mildly recent reference. I'm also in...

Hey guys, Going to be having my concrete floor done this year in my 40x60 and in the planning stages. I would like some input and possible recommendations on what you guys did for drains. I have a 14 wide door that I would like to go in a few feet and then run a 10 ft or so trench drain...

Long time lurker finally with something to contribute! Been a long time coming but finally got a 60x40 put up about a week or so ago. Just wanted the basic structure up for this winter. I had to do a little dirt work and have my fiber relocated as it went through the site so I had them run a...

I think that's the answer as well

Look for cameras that are ONVIF supported. Its a universal format that allows brand X to work with brand Y. Meaning I can use Axis cameras on a Samsung recorder or any type of combination etc. Lots of cameras or NVRs that have proprietary features will only work on like branded equipment though.

I'm going to echo Tmart and say you should up your budget at least a little bit, I work for my local telecom as a security camera specialist. I work with stuff in the $200+ range for POE cameras and I can say I've done a lot of work for customers that have spent sub $800 on a package on amazon...

I'd like to be able to put a semi or tractor in there if need be is the reason for a 14' door. Also I may have dreams of potentially putting a little loft in the back at some point. I'd probably have the windows up towards the top half of the roll up door to let in some natural light and may...

Hey guys, short time garageless homeowner, long time lurker, on here every day it seems like trying to learn. I'm finally ready to start getting some quotes for a shop/garage and wanted to lay out my basic ideas and see if any of you seasoned vets had things you wish you did/didn't do...

I would run cat5 or cat6 for sure.

https://www.ligowave.com/products/ligodlb-propeller-5 I use these at my job. Set in P2P mode have one on exterior of your house as the access and plug the data cable into your router, mount the other on your shop as the station and put a dummy switch in garage. I use them to stream remote...

Worked in a shop with 4 lifts, 3 two posts and one 4 post.. the only thing the 4 got used for was oil changes. It had two jacks on it so you could use it for rotates and brakes etc. But still not fun. I'd go for 2 which it looks like you have decided on.

It's my favorite spring hobby, tips: check south facing slopes, they get more sun so deer tend to bed there. Walk very slow, about 2mph or less, any stick that looks like an antler tip is an antler until its not... lots of times you'll be sure it's not an antler until you get right on it. Check...
