I think its a heat pump. I went with single unit. because of cost. and still cost around 900. (including warranty) I know It may be wasted money, but to me its not. I spent 2 days cramping, because i decided to work in a 95 degree garage, with ample hydration. I was still urinating...

thanks for all the replies, and I am reading that the 25k btu units, even tough they have some heating capabilities, it is supplemental. which is kinda *****, ill have to see how it goes. My garage has a second floor that is attic storage, and its not insulated. If i do a mini split system, I...

Yes the mini split is a no brainer, but is not a quick solution. I need something quick. the mini split would be installed down the road. I would love to insulate the upper area, (storage) and use a 2 zone mini split in the future, but that is up to debate. I kept researching yesterday and...

I have a 1200 sqf garage, insulated and Sheetrock, etc etc. ceiling about 10 feet. I can barely work on hot days. I need a quick solution to this. A mini split, but it would be the best, but I’d have to do a lot of wiring and drill trough brick and all. Slapping a window unit, is easy...

well, too late, i guess, ive already ordered the breakers. good sweet deal online.. But i kinda thought it was funny. although my city is very picky and has some weird rules. Ill ask, but i rather not get into an argument with the city or him. lol... I can use the other breakers on...

as someone who had his back and upper arms of pulling three 3g + one 5g wires through 2 inch conduit. You will be better off doing it into 2 conduits. pulling wires in already filled conduit will not be fun, unless you pull all the wires needed on the first go around. how deep are the septic...

i guess ill place a bulb there. for now

thanks for all the help, almost passed inspection. But something simple. Conduit and cable are good. yay.... Requested an Arc fault breaker for the lights, and a ground fault control breaker for the 240 volt breaker. Simple fix, but expensive

factory led lamps. not bright enough, needs to be brighter. Ill keep searching

Made a mistake when I told the Garage door people to install the garage opener not to tell them i Needed LED lighting in it.. The area of the garage that is covered by the garage door does not get enough light. I like to work with the door open most times, so a lamp on the ceiling will not...

Sounds like a plan

Forgot to mention it’s not ser wire. I’m using xhhw-2 wire from detached garage to my main service... I’ve been told it has to be conduit

ok today i removed the drywall, and inspecting the entryway to the service box, i only have 1 option. all other entries are blocked, the small service box cannot be used, the conduit for the big service box runs above it. without drilling the box, this is the only way to do it.... so option...

Meter can is locked. My guess I would drill from inside out and use the smaller panel

this is the main panel in my house. I always tought i had 1 main panel and a sub, next to it. house is from 2005. looks like its 2 main panels... im hooking power to a detacched garage, and that has been covered in another thread. im evaluating how to tie the wires into the house panel...
