Thank you for the tips, that looks pretty sweet. I did have thoughts about an ice dam forming. The OSB is not an air tight seal to the roof sheathing, you can stick a finger in between the ceiling and roof sheathing, not sure if that will help but i had those vents in mind when i did that. The...

Here are a few updated pics Air line ran Trim painted Fan hung

Hello, I have a Dayton 3E404B 60,000 BTU natural gas heater in my garage. I ran the natural gas line, lit the pilot, wire nutted the three (black blue red) thermostat wires together and it lit, the fan kicked on, and it worked perfectly. I only ran it for about 2 minutes as i don't have a...

Thank you for the detailed explanation on the vapor barrier and the blocking of the joists! I will plan something for the joists. After the insulation was installed, a 1.5 mil visquine was stapled to the face before the pegboard and OSB were installed. Not sure if that is adequate, but it sure...

im going to give it a try this winter with no insulation on the ceiling and see what happens. If i have time before the winter, i am going to caulk the seams in the OSB and put some insulation pieces in where the roof plywood and ceiling plywood meet to help. Ill also close off the hole where...

I work on quite a few vehicles, and i like to work on classic cars and motorcycles for myself. Every winter i buy something to build...as soon as the garage is done, my 79 bronco will be going under the knife.

Hey guys. Here are some pics of the progress on my garage so far. First time home buyer and I'm 24 so I have a little bit of a budget, but I'm doing the best I can... Here is the garage the day we moved in. 22x30 with an 8' insulated door. Bare studs on the walls and an open ceiling. There...

I was unable to locate a wiring diagram on reznors website for it. Or even on reznorparts.com. And yes it has a standing pilot light. I took the side covers and the back cover off and inspected the heat exchanger and the burners very closely for any cracks or rust. It all appears clean inside...

Got a call from my realtor today that the plumbing in the garage that I figured was for the pool heater is infact a natural gas line SO PUMPED that I don't have to install/have a natural gas line installed!!! Any more insight on the heater? I wanna be ready for when I hang it.
