Seeing my post I should say 4ft total length for the pipe not 4ft slope, sorry about that:p

In Funvtec picture that is exactly how my b-vent unit was installed by my propane dealer except sloping down. 4ft total. They are telling me this is ok. What gives, are they wrong or are they correct, confused?

just had a 45000 btu hot dawg unit installed this week in our 22x22 garage with 9' ceiling. It made a world of differents in the way of comfort for working in it. We had a 16000 btu 220 volt electric unit in the garage for awhile and it never really never heated to where you could be...

You made a nice find there:thumbup: Could you keep us posted from time to time and leave us know what you like and dislike about your lift. I have been giving some thought of using this type of lift in my garage with my low ceiling . I see with your car that the engine is in the back. This will...

i just had a insulation company blow in R-38 in our 500 sq.. ft garage that is attached to our house. Lowes around our area wanted around 50 dollars for 88 sq. ft. not sure about the price any more. I needed about 5 bag's which came to around 250 dollars plus tax. The insulation company...

Thanks PatrickW for the reply. Electric seemed the way for me as well. I only use the garage a few times during the winter.

PatrickW I see that you have went with a electric unit for your garage. Do you mind me asking you a couple of questions. What square footage garage you have, type of unit you have installed as well as what interuptible circuit means. Sorry for all of these questions. What you have done to your...

I like the chain idea for safety. I will have to check to see if there's room between the shock and the spring. Yes I heard of some people just putting pressure on the coil before they release the nut. The stock miata's are not stiffly sprung like other car's. When I get them out of the car I...

Thank's for the reply to my question's. so atd is off my list. Checked out the OTC compressor, look's good. I thought about the sear's unit. I'm worried about the spring bowing and causing a problem. Maybe i'm just paranoid. Heard of the clam type being a little large for the miata springs...

Does anyone know if ATD tools are made here in the USA and do they hold up well. Reason for the question is i'm interested in their ATD-7563 clam type spring compressor for the small spring's that are on the miata . I'm not to keen on the two threaded rods with clamp's that attach to the coils...

we are located in Perry County Pa. Most of the counties that are around us call us ridge runner's because we have nothing that is flat here:)

I understand that i can't keep it perfect unless we never move the car's out of the garage:) But with our stone driveway and having two car's going in and out daily i was worried if it would take it's toll on the racedeck over time. Where we live i have nobody around my area that i know who...

After a lot of searching on here about racedeck durability i called and received a sample to look at. I like what i saw but using the edge of a screwdriver and hitting it lightly it left indentions on the racedeck. My concern is with small stones getting between the treads of the tires and...

so it does help insulate you from the concrete, that what I wanted to hear. After research on the forum and imput from you guy's I do believe this will be my way of covering the floor. I just need it to look clean and to do small mechanical project's. :beer: Again thank's for the answers

I'm glad to hear that it helps. Working in the winter near concrete is getting old with me. It's not a cheap investment so I needed to ask everyone I can how it does for them. Thanks
