I also have the 45k btu unit natural gas. I heat a 22x26' garage with 9' ceiling and storage loft 12x22' with 7' ceiling, insulated and sheetrocked on Long Island, NY. My experience with heating times and operation are the same as Duane and Brian. No way you can touch the heat exchanger tubes if...

I am having a new asphalt driveway installed at my home NY. I have spoken to several contractors for bids and some like to use type 6f the other prefers 7f. It will be edged with belgian block and have a cambridge paver walkway. Is either grade of asphalt more durable than the other for a...

I did my 22'x26' floor a few months back with Rustoleum Pro epoxy 2 coats tan w/speckles thrown on top and 1 coat clear. Two coats of tan is a must for a uniform appearance on my floor. The concrete slab absorbed the coating differently in spots and the first coat was blotchy. I applied the...

Check out the wall from the interior as far as electric, plumbing, and framing. You will have to rough in the opening framing where the a/c penetrates the wall. You can start marking your position to cut through by drilling a small hole from the outside or inside whichever is simpler and safer...

I recently installed a 45K BTU Nat. Gas Mr. Heater Big Maxx and had the same issue. The center heat exchanger tube at the first 180 degree bend following the burner glowed bright red during the initial firing. Subsequently there is is still a red glow at that point but much less intense. The...

I recently installed a Mr. Heater Big Maxx 45K BTU NG garage heater unit in a 22x26' garage, 9' ceiling with a loft above. I had looked at the manufacturer you posted about also, but I was able to find more dealers and better pricing online for the Mr. Heater unit. The specifications and style...

I like the look of the 2x4 panel ceiling mounted direct to the ceiling joists/rafters. I have 26' wide trusses 24" on center 9' high to the bottom of the trusses and would like a flush mounting easily removable panel system like this if it's possible. Can this system be mounted directly to the...

I installed one on my 8'x16' torsion spring type garage door 6 months ago. Very simple install. I had to calibrate the door motor about 3 times for it to actuate properly. It has worked perfectly since. The exterior key pad, plug-in light fixture, and interior control pad are all wireless...

What's the name of the supplier or manufacturer of this type of metal panel?

You could install a seperate permanent unit in the garage area. Hanging forced air unit such as the Hotdawg or Mr. Heater vented units. They come gas or propane fired and can side or vertical vent.

I will be installing a natural gas heater in a 22'x26' frame garage, fully insulated on Long Island. I am wondering if an Empire or Cozy style direct vent counterflow wall furnace would be effective or are the hanging gas power vent models more appropriate for a garage work shop.

I am going to do a similar install. How far must the vent stack extend from the outside wall on the horizontal vent?
