Hello, I have a UDAS-60 that I am installing in my garage. Ceiling height is 12'. I originally hung the heater 6" from the ceiling but that made the exhaust vent (under eave) at about 9". Manual says to be 12"+. I moved the heater down an additional 18" from the ceiling. Now the bottom of the...

The new additional garage is detached. I have two OHDs, a 10x10 and a 16x10. Both are good quality and insulated but they are still garage doors. The garage will store my boat and non-daily driver truck, so the doors will not be opened regularly in the winter. Sent from my SM-G960U using The...

I went with 2x6 studs for a couple reasons. I plan on using r19/21 there. The spray foam would be to just seal the stud to the outside plywood and any gaps where they meet. Sent from my SM-G960U using The Garage Journal mobile app

I was looking at the dow pro, it's like the regular rattle cans with tube attached but this is a gun and the cans screw on to it. Seems to have better control and can be cleaned after use. Sent from my SM-G960U using The Garage Journal mobile app

Hello, While I sit home and think about all the projects I cant get finished with this shutdown, I'm contemplating air sealing my new garage with spray foam. I am looking at the DOW great stuff spray kits online. I have seen some videos of people using the foam to seal each stud bay, top plates...

After studying the info on this link, I think I would be fine to run with the current 1" pipe and tee off after my stove/dryer branch. Thank you for the link.

With the option of running from the meter directly to the garage with direct bury poly, do I need to be concerned with elevation change? My house is a walk out basement style. The meter is at 1st floor level. When I run from the meter, down about a 10 foot elevation change to the back of the...

Is there any kind of rule that would limit the number of takeoffs from the main? Sent from my SM-G960U using The Garage Journal mobile app

Yes. The meter supply comes from a different area. There are no utilities in the back of the house. Sent from my SM-G960U using The Garage Journal mobile app

Phil, I did measure and I got just over 1.25 inches diameter or 4.25 circumference. Pipe inside is labeled 1". I believe the pipes on the meter are 1.25" Sent from my SM-G960U using The Garage Journal mobile app

Hello All, I have three options (that I know of) to run natural gas to my new detached garage. The meter size was increase 5 years ago to allow for a standby NG generator. According to my gas load calculation, there is more than enough capacity with this meter. The regulator is installed at the...

Terry, That you for the info. I pictured the box being mounted inside the garage flush with the exterior osb. It sounds like there is a shallow box available for surface mounting and just pull the romex through the back of the box. I should have mounted the boxes up first, but I should be able...
