If both buildings have overhang, you can get 2 mesh and mount it on the soffit. 2 ways to set up this way is by having the main mesh at the house connected wireless to the indoor wifi, and the 2nd mesh at the garage, you should be able to get internet inside. That worked for me but not the best...

This is my system I build, the blank spot on left of boiler is where the tankless water heater will go. I did not complete my parts list as I bought a whole bunch of stuff and just started making it then returned the extras. The picture should help you see what it is. Some from Menards...

I have a 12' ceiling and I use high bay LED for working and they are excellent. However I frequent using the shop as my entrance instead of the actual front door. My issue is turning on those high bay led on in middle of night isn't much fun when I forget the dimmer is still on full bright...

this picture is the one I would like to have, its a nice one, big handle turns nice, but doesn't work for my wall. the picture on right will work and its pretty much all I can find. I would like the one in first picture but with short pex fitting like in the right picture.

I am finalizing few things to the building, one of them is outdoor wall faucet for garden hose. I went to local stores, the nice ones are frost proof but they have way too long pipe attached to it, that won't work as it will stick out my interior wall. Only option I see are brass sillcock...

That word 'fixture block' was what I needed, that provided a lot of better search results! thank you!

I want to mount exterior door light and the rib part of the steel siding is perfectly centered with the exterior door. I would like to see different methods how one would fix that. Pictures would be helpful! thanks in advance!

Thank you all for the responses. I decided to replace a 14/2 for a 14/3 since I wanted to add lights to inside of my bench cabinets. This is a new post frame out in the woods in MN, yes everything is grounded and each fixtures have neutral, just not all switches. The 4 way system is for front...

Hard to explain but easier to draw it down so Here is my drawing, will this work?

I've always wanted to learn how to build a pool.. Today I decided I am going to start the research on how to build a pool on my property in middle of no where. Pool size 16x32 maybe? Possibly inground? End goal in the future will be to upgrade it into a indoor with sliding or retracting walls...

I am wondering if the boiler pump needs to be before the mixer valve? Or can it be after? The way I set up my panel, having the mix valve before the pump is ideal. I have attached picture of my mock setup, the boiler pump Wil be placed above the zone 2 pump (the one routing to the 4 branch...

I've framed short walls but never a really long one like this one without supports in between like posts or another wall. I need to build a 40' long 12' tall wall to divide the space into 2, it is not a load bearing wall, it will have a 8'x8' overhead door, 1 36"x80" entry door. It will be...

I do realize the list is not complete as I have all the tools and stuff to finish from there. I will update the list soon as I can with all required items needed. system is a closed loop system I listed 3 pumps, they all are the same 1/25hp pumps, 1 for main, 1 for each zone. Pex is 1/2 inch...

Hello everyone, I took a day to research on a DIY method of making my own heating and zone control panel and how much that would compare to a ready to install system like Menards offers. Ready system with heating, 2 zone control panel, 115k BTU condensing boiler with 4 port and 6 port...

The issue was the flame sensor is triggering. Reason is that the location of the heater was accumulating so much heat in that area, it was sucking in all that hot air making the flame longer hence hitting the flame sensor. My solution was to add a fan 45 degree towards the rear of the heater...
