Will the big blue wire nuts from home depot work with 3 #8 wire? It says max 2 #6 but not sure if it will be ok with 3 8's. Anyone have any insight? Jesse

I just received my farenhet 5000w heat and took it for a quick test. After it ran for a few minutes I turned it "off". Here's my two questions.... 1. It seemed like it ran for a while after shutting off. I know the fan is supposed to run for a bit, I guess I was surprised how long it ran. Is it...

With electric heat being 100% efficient, does one of these units heat better than the other? I'm talking about the 5000w models.

I'm curious what people did when hardwiring their heater. When the wire left the wall did you use conduit to the heater or did you just let the wire hang? Pics would be great. I'm trying to decide what I want to do once my wire comes out if the wall. Hope i explained myself well enough.

I'm preparing to install a farenheat 5000 watt heater in my garage. I ran 8/2 nm wire thinking it was fine. I downloaded the manual for the heater and it says to use wire rated for at least 75deg. I believe NM is only 60? Did I just screw up?

Anyone know if it's worth adding a insulation kit to a thermowayne 35 door?

I'm having a hard time deciding between the farenheat 5000 or 7500. My garage is 30x20 with a 9x16 walled off work space. The work space is part of the 30x20 footprint. I would rather buy the 5000 because of the much lower price, but I don't want to be disappointed as well. The garage is...

The heater I'm buying calls for 10/2 grounded wire. If I need to pull 75' should I bump up to 8/2? It's a 5000watt farenheat.

I have a line on a 2 year old Hot Dawg nat gas heater for 300. Sounds like a good deal but I believe 30k is rated for a 1-1 1/2 car garage. Anyone ever use one in a 2 car? I live in Michigan and the garage is attached with blown in insulation in walls and attic.

I recently blew about 8" into my attic above my garage. I just moved into the house about a year and a half ago. Never paid much attention to the ceiling before now. It looks as though you can see the individual sheets if drywall and some nail dimples. The drywall is 5/8 on 24" centers. What has...

I'm new to this forum and just starting out finishing my 2.5 car garage. I have blown R30 in the attic and installed r13 in the walls. I don't spend a whole lot of time in the garage (two young kids) but enjoy it when I do. I'm having a hard time deciding on heat options. I live in Michigan so...
