I am trying to get some ductwork figured out for my Furnace that I am installing in the garage rafters. It's a 60,000 btu furnace, American Standard Freedom 80, I believe manufactured in 2000 or 2002. I do not have any manuals for it nor could I find any online with the model number. The...

How's this for a furnace location... :wtf: It's heavy... :) I am going to run some of the duct work for it prior to drywall, but has anyone done something similar? If so, what is the best source for the ducting? I am only running the supply and return about 5 feet each, so what would be...

I am getting ready to drywall the new garage in the next month or so. The issue is that I have a 6" concrete curb/stem wall upon which my walls sit. The original intention was for there to be a 3/4" lip proud of the framing, meaning the framing would sit back 3/4 of an inch from the interior...

So, I am in the process of insulating my new 2 car garage. This garage is built/attached to my existing shop at the back wall. I am wondering if I should insulation the wall against the shop. The shop wall consists of two outer layers of plywood and one inner layer of OSB, no insulation. I...

22'x22' garage, will be drywalled, 10' high ceilings. Standard cabinets, etc. Space will be used to wrench on a couple cars, no serious fab though. I have a 25'x14' shop attached to the garage where I do all the wood working and messy fab. So, what is the general consensus on spray texturing...

I will be getting ready to close in my walls in the next few months and I have always been planning on going with GWB. I have no issues with installing GWB as I have experience. But, GWB does damage easily. Also, having a complete wood (or similar material) for the wall allows attaching of...

So, I decided to contact the local inspection office to get my wiring figured out. Here's the scenario: Going about 100' to my new garage from existing house panel. Majority of the run will be in the house crawl space, about 6' under new sidewalk (2" PVC already buried). 100 amps. Per the...

So, what's the thoughts on this item? It is for sale for $275. I already have propane in my new garage and was planning on a propane heater. Also, since my shop is attached to the garage, I could possibly remove and sell the small wall mounted propane heater I have in the shop and vent this...

Okay, so I am getting ready to run all the electrical for my garage (21' x 21'). I will be running all the wiring in the walls and bringing it all back to a panel that I will have yet to supply power to. But I am not sure if the main panel in my house can even support 50 amps for my garage...

In planning the finishes for my garage (cabinets, etc), I am also planning for installing a lift at some future point. Therefore, what are the outside measurements of your lift and what kind (including four-post, two-post, etc). I need to know the rectangle of space that a lift could...

The wife and I purchased our home about a year and a half ago. It did not even have a garage, but there was an existing storage building or shop off the back alley (there is a gravel alley along the back of the house that divides the block in half). The shop was 28' by 13'. I punched a hole...

Hopefully I will be able to complete the interior of my new garage sometime this summer, but in the meantime, I will continue planning. The garage is 21'x21x with 10' ceilings. I will be insulating and rocking the walls and ceiling. In the attached shop, I have a small wall mounted propane...
