I have that exact same heater in my attached 3 car garage 2x4 construction r11 in the walls r 22 in the ceiling. It gets my garage to 65 in the cold Wisconsin winters. Power in my area costs 0.13 cents a KW. my electricity bills last winter keeping the garage around 50 deg f were 300 + a month...

I'm in Madison WI just finished my attached 3 car garage. I did unfaced r11 ,r13 would be better, with poly vapor barrier over it and taped all of the joints then osb on the walls. For the ceiling if you don't want to drop the drywall to install poly saving hours upon hours of work get a closed...

I don't like Carrier and will never run them again because where I am they only officially sell parts to licensed dealers/contractors. In turn they are a lot more expensive.

I rebuilt my 5600 watt northern tool electric heater to run off of a contractor and transformer so it will hook up to a wall thermostat. The connections to the heating element in mine are soldered and look exactly like yours. I know this because the spade connectors fell off of the heating...

Are you saying that when you remove one of the wires plugged into the front of the jack the other coax wire stops working?

With your electricity rates being so low electric would be a good choice. They are 0.13 per kilowatt hour where I am. Costs me around $100 a month to keep my 3 car garage at 55 here with the temp outside at 15 to 25 deg f.

I have something similar in my garage. I got it from northern tool. I think it is 5600 watts made by pro something or other. The stock thermostat fried in it so I hooked it up to a 24v house thermostat using a contractor and a transformer. For the $130 bucks that I paid it does a decent job. So...

Here is how I solved my water trouble. Out of my air compressor pump I run an after cooler. For the aftercooler I used a junkyard gm snake type ac condenser out of a car. it dumps into a 5 gallon harbor freight air tank. By the time the air goes through the aftercooler it has cooled enough that...

I found that my compressor tank would get hot and build up condensation. To fix the moisture and heat troubles here is how I plumbed my air compressor. I get no water in the main 60 gallon tank and it now stays cool. I stole the idea from a guy on youtube called chevahaulic. Compressor head...
