Thanks for the info guys. I'm buying some at home depot there 15amp but there a commercial grade and its only about 16 dollars for a box of 10

This isn't about my garage this time but you guys give awesome feed back. In my dining room I have 12-2 copper wire on a 20 amp breaker. All my outlets and light switches are 15 amp. Which is within code here in ny. However I run an 8,000 btu ac in my dining room on its own outlet in that...

Would the rigid foam board if its taped at the seems create a moisture barrier. I'm new to all of this its kind learn as I go but on a budget

I'm not sure why but I'm bent on this wood stove I really like the feel and smell of wood heat so its almost a hobby thing. I just want it to be safe and not grow mold. I've had serious mold problems in an apartment which in turn made me buy instead of renting. Landlord thought painting over...

Its a detached garage sorry forgot that detail

So just hanging some insulation board with the seems sealed and installing a wood stove will help some. I'll get it as air tight as I can but its almost 50 years old the house was built in 1907. What would be a good thing for the walls and ceiling. I was thinking about leaving it with just the...

If I'm running my wood stove it'll be for the whole day not a few hours if that makes sense what I said above

It was heated for a few years with the old stove out there and I dont see any rust I knew the guy who lived here and he heated it off and on with the stove but I really think this salamander is my moisture concern. Although I do know I should keep it up over 40 all winter but I work 12 hour...

Five years from now after I put the roof on the house and a few other things I will install a gas heater but I need something for now and I already have the wood stove.

Up here the ins dont care as long as it meets manufacturing specs. It would cost alot to run a gas heater out here. I dont have any natural gas lines my house is electric heat until I can afford a Ng furnace. Electric just isn't warm enough. Plus I like the idea of the wood crackling. The...

I hope this works this is all four corners from the middle. I started the ply wood but it molded fast using the torpedo heater a few times a week for a month

Oh and the doors are leaky which ill patch up until I can afford new ones. I will take a few pics today

I will update that info later today as I'm about to sleep after a midnight shift. This garage is located in upstate NY north of Watertown. It has vinyl siding plywood walls and the walls are part finished with r12. The ceiling is ten foot and there is r12 between the two by fours. Its only hung...

So I have a 24-32 garage. It has roll out insulation for a ceiling and walls the interior walls are not finished. I am installing a wood stove next year but for this year I heat it with a propane salamander. Issue is I started last fall by putting up basic osb board on one wall. Now that wall is...

I'll check them all in a little bit and breaker brands to
