$475 is about double what others on here are paying. You should call around. When I bought mime form an online retailer, I asked them if there were any installers near me. They put me in touch with a local guy who did the evac/charge for $100.

I agree with PoorOwner. A single 24k on your south (hottest) wall will do what you want. Don't worry about monthly electrical costs in your decision. It doesn't add up to much. I put a pair of 22 SEER mini splits in my shop a few months ago here in Florida. My shop is on its own meter, and...

I'm in Valkaria and just went through the same decision. Why I chose a metal building My mini split install

Glad this is starting to work out for you

When I needed an insulated roll up door, I bought the 750 model from Roll Up Doors Direct. My shop is air conditioned and it seems that the door is doing a good job. I don't notice any extra heat near the door. When you opt for the insulation, you get seals for the sides and top. I ordered...

I went through this a few months ago and determined this tankless unit to be the best option for my shop. I just want some warm water for my sink. I ordered it, and it looks good. Still a month away from installing and testing it.

That panel has knockouts on its back wall. You could enter right into it with that LB fitting (instead of above or below).

The 18k (1.5 ton) units are all 240V, so they will each be on both phases in your panel. As I understand it, all the circuits in EMT can share a single ground. The ground wire must be sized for the largest circuit. That means you can use a single 12g ground for both of the disconnect boxes.

It's kinda like how Kleenex means facial tissue. Carolina Carports is a very large producer of metal buildings and has become a generic term for metal building. Myself and several friends have CC shops, and we've all had issues. It would be easy to blow all of these issues out of proportion...

I finished my install three weeks ago and wanted to give a report. First, the shop details: Carolina Carports metal building 24 x 45 x 10 1,080 sf Closed cell foam (2" on walls, 3" on ceiling) 3/4" plywood walls on furring strips Insulated roll-up garage door No windows The install was easy...

I used these screws. The wings are pretty cool. They drill a clearance hole in the wood and then break off when they hit the metal. They work great. You can get a similar style from Home Depot, but it has a different head.

When I was going through this same decision, I discovered that I could get a Carolina Carports building with closed cell foam for the same price as a bare building of more substantial or traditional build quality. My personal conclusion was that a CC building that is completely sealed with foam...

The shelves you linked are 72" tall. Having 6' shelves on a 12' wall seems wasteful. I'd be looking for something at least 8' tall. Try googling Warehouse Style Shelving.

I had an a/c guy come out to do the evac and charge. Just reporting what he told me.

My manual said that I would need to remove some amount if I went below a certain length. I don't remember the exact values. To me, a pressure check seemed like a better way to determine if excess refrigerant was present. Is this the best way?

Similar houses in those two locations are worth about the same. It's just that the parcel of land in CA is worth $530k more than the OH land. That land value shouldn't have much effect on the labor to install siding on a house.

I installed my Pioneer units with about 6-7' of line. No issues for me. The pressures were still within spec.

$120 per hour seems ridiculous to me. Where did you get that number? Is that a typical rate in Ohio?
