Thanks! 280Z you have inspired me to give it a try. I also have a 500-ish square feet man cave above my detached garage that I am considering a mini split for as well.. that is if the shop install goes smooth. You cant beat the pricing on these! The only thing I am disliking is the 26' of line...

Man this is awesome, I am definitely leaning towards going this route in my 30x40 shop now. I may have missed it but I have read these systems come precharged, can you tell me what the process was to hook up the lines and charge the system? I have no HVAC experience but I am hoping to DIY...

Had the humidity monitor in the shop all weekend, high temp recorded was 91 degrees with 78% humidity... Even when I was working in the garage last night - after 10 pm it was still 81 degrees and 71% humidity in there. Its hot and I need to do something about it. I'm hearing different opinions...

my humidity gauge came in yesterday and I stuck it out in the shop this morning. Still hasn't got hot outside yet, Outside Temp was mid 70's. 89% humidity and 72 degrees inside the shop this morning at 7:15. I am going to leave it out there all day and will report back this afternoon what the...

Location is central Georgia, temperature is mostly 95 degree's plus outside during the day and high 70's at night with humidity between 50% - 70% That is all current weather forecasts. I do not know what the inside temperature and humidity is but I ordered a humidity monitor last week that is...

Hey Marc, Really appreciate the help! What do you mean by intake vents for the fan? You are right it REALLY *****, I have 8 cars and 2 four wheelers to maintain and a lot of work I need/want to be doing but with it being so hot I have to go out there after dark and I still come back in needing...

I have a 30 deep by 40 wide by 12 foot tall red iron steel building with (2) 10ft x 8 ft non insulated roll up doors on the 40 ft side & (1) man door on the 30 ft side of the building; I have also added a carport style building in front of the shop against one of the large roll up doors...

Alright so I have a novice home owner question for some of you more qualified members. My house & shop are located at the end of the street in my neighborhood, The street has a downhill grade to it. there is somewhat of a ditch through each yard which ultimately trickles down to my yard, my...

Installed the lift this weekend. Everything went pretty smooth, about 10 hrs total.

Thanks everyone for the responses, I will get more pictures tonight, see attached for an overall shot of the new building against the old building. Not sure if you can tell but the new building in front sits completely under a gutter on the taller building so there is not much water getting into...

Isn't that the stuff they use to replace the bottom of a boat with a screen door LOL at that commercial

Went up there to buy the 9KOH & Ended up picking up the 9OHSC (SS) for the same price because their inventory was messed up and they had ZERO 9KOH lifts in stock. Going on a cruise to the bahama's this weekend. anxious to install it when I get back. I have some very old AW-32 hydraulic oil in...

So I have a 30x40 red iron steel building that was installed on my property when I purchased the place, also had a 24x40 concrete pad infront of the shop. I purchased a 24x24 carport style building installed onto this existing slab. This building has worked out perfect for me I am very happy...

Thanks for your responses, I am going to go that route, I just have to decide which lift I want. Maybe going to their showroom will help make a decision.

Can anyone give me pointers on sealing the base of the carport (metal siding) to the concrete to prevent water from getting in? Also I still have not connected the two buildings together yet b/c I have not installed the garage door but was wondering if anyone had any ideas to seal the two...
