    Sub-Panel wire size and type (etc)

    So this is for a sub-panel in the basement not the garage, but the wires will have to run through the attic of the garage... so I'm posting it here because I've got lots of good info from this site in the past.

    Ventless Propane Vs Mini-Split for heat?

    I have a 32x30x10' detached garage that I'm in the process of insulating and drywalling. It will have R23 mineral wool in the 2x6 walls and blown insulation in the ceiling.

    Densifier and Sealer or all-in-one?

    I’ve got a new 32x30 garage, the floor was pored about a month and a half ago. I’d like to seal the slab, I’d love a cool looking epoxy floor but have neither the time nor money for that. Mostly I’d like to protect the concrete and hopefully make it a little easier to clean up fluid spills...

    Should I cut control joints after a month and a half?

The floor slab was pored about a month and a half ago. It was not cut and currently has no visible cracks. The contractor is willing...
