Pull the pipe out as you dont want that inside your walls. Then go get some 2x4s and if your 5 ft on center on the post get either 10 or 20 footers. Less cutting and waste that way. Install them on the inside of your post either at 16" or 24" on center. Just the way they did your outside wall...

Go with the steel not that bad on price easy to install and you can wash it down if it get dusty. I put tin on the ceiling of my 30x60 and used osb on the side walls. Makes it easier if you want to add cabinets or hang anything on walls.

I just got a hydro smart 170 ng boiler for my in floor heat system. Hydro smart says to run two pumps. One to run boiler and one to run floor pexs.So you can run both systems at different speeds. This I understand but if the system is tee'd off to run the floor pexs and it's at a faster speed...

I've been told that if you run that kind of temp in the floor it will destroy your concrete. Makes it fall apart. Temp of floor should stay about 80-90.

Yes thats what they said I have to do. If I dont no warranty on the boiler.

Talked to hydro smart this morning and they said I need two pumps. One at a slower speed running though the boiler and one running the floor tubes at a higher speed. Or it is hard on the boiler.

thermostat if at all possible sould be about head high and behind the furnace if at all possible.

The boiler I have is a menards hydro smart 170 gas.

Do you really need two pumps to make a simple one zone in floor heat system work? The insturctions that came with the boiler shows two pumps on system. I've got a 1800 sq ft building with 6 runs of just under 300 ft of pexs. All the floor will be at same temp to heat shop to 50-55.So why...

SCORE. I just bought a hydro smart boiler from a guy who was about to have his home repoed. He started a remodel and didnt get it finished. It's a hydro smart 170 gas boiler new never run with the stainless pipe for the wall. All for $650.

Best thing for a wood stove is two 55 gal. barrels and a northern or harbor freight stove door kit. Just keep it away from walls and anything that will burn and be sure to open it up once in a while to keep pipes clean.Make great heat.

Back in the early 80s I took and old iron fuel oil stove that stopped working and removed the burner. Then made a 1/4 thick steel box that I welded to the opening where burner was removed with a barrel stove door on it. You could put about 24" wood in it. Once it got hot a little you turned on...

I'VE GOT A 30X60 MORTON IN MN. SO A LITTLE COLDER THAN YOU ARE. My trusses are at 7'6'' what I did was run a 2x4 on the bottom of the truss every 2' then put up vapor barrier and then my tin screwed to the 2x4s. Was told I could just put tin to trusses but didn't like that much span. I've got...

It has 3 side windows, two 3' walk though doors, and a 10x10 and a14x14 overhead doors. It seems to lose about 25-30 degress in 24 hrs.By that I mean I had the shop at 55 last winter I turned the heat off and it was still above 35, 24 hrs later.It got down between 10-19 below zero that night and...

Dry wall seems cheaper then steel untill you add in extra weight, taping, primer, paint, not water proof. You can wash the tin if need be. All of a sudden tin doesn't look that bad.

I've got a 30x60 motron pole building. Have a modine 65,00 hanging heater and set up for in floor heat with 1800 ft of pexs.Shop will drop from 55 to about 35 after 24 hrs with heat off outside temp in the 10-10 below range.Think I can use a 50 gal gas water heater to get 55 temp on floor heat...

I've got a morton pole building 30x60 real well insulated and todays heat index is over a 100 and the shop stayed at 80 with no a/c and all windows and overhead doors shut. Money on insulation well spent.

check with your gas co. it may be cheaper to have them run the line and have a second metor bill.

I just replaced my oldest compressor a 1947 curtis and updated the newer of the two a 1980 speedair 5 hp 2 stage with a china built pump. You can sure tell the difference between the old usa built pumps and the china copies. Even after 30 yrs the old one was queit just needed rebuilt. the china...

In most of mn about 20-25 ft will get you plenty of good water. I'am in princeton and going to put one in this summer in my shop. I left a 2x2 hole in floor so I could do it at a later time. I put one in Ramsey back in the early 80's and at 25 ft I had 2" of clear water out of a engine driven...
