Low profile unistrut from home depot. long enough to span 3 studs. See pic. That’s a 18kbtu unit. Dunno its weight but it wasn’t light. Used lag bolts for the unistrut. Aint goin nowhere. maybe my ipad doesn’t show the poll. I can click on ‘results’ And see those. Dunno. Cheers.

Installed my pioneer 18kbtu condenser on my house in 2017. My garage is on the other side of the wall. When running full bore, i can just barely hear a whine from the condenser while standing in the garage opposite the condenser. If it’s noise you worry about, don’t. Its also SO NICE working on...

My garage. Modine will replace the electric heater, which is 3 feet from the boiler closet in my garage.

Again much appreciated info. I’ll be quite happy with 16kbtu heat. My 5kw, 240v electric heater is 17,000 btu. So this will match Its capacity. And i have a low,med,high setting on the electric heater and it keeps me warm at low setting. I’m certain this modine heater will work beautifully For...

I appreciate the info. The garage is part of the house, and never gets below 45deg f anyway. When it was -7f last week one morning, the temp in the garage was 44. I also have propylene glycol in the closed system i recently added, and it’s good to -23deg f freeze protection per the spectrometer...

Last spring i I came across a like new, barely used, Modine HSB24 unit heater for TWENTY dollars. It was at a customers house I was doimg work for. The guy guts houses and scraps the metal, and he tore it out of a house. His wife was home and called him for me and he only asked $20 for it. I...

I also don’t think a 30k btu mini split unit is enough. You will need 2 units, preferably one at each end. I’d say two 30’s or two 24k Btu’s. These are imverter driven. They will slow down or speed up as needed. Hard but not impossible to oversize with minisplits. In your case 2 units makes...

i can’t find any remaining 410a units on any sites. Seems like they are sold out? Where did you get yours?

I currently live in a raised ranch In upstate NY. These types of homes are inherent for poor storage. No basement, little to no attic space, and poor floor plans. We have made do for the 11 years i’ve been here but i recently acquired a new vehicle which l prefer garage kept at all times...

You missed the part where he said it’s the best the minisplit could do in the garage.

if your hvac guy is doing the swap out for free, i’d let him go to 30k btu. Then paint the roof with white elastomeric paint like you said. Between the btu’s and white paint, i think you will get the results you want in both the inlaw suite and garage. if you had to, you could keep the 12kbtu...

This is exactly what i did. Read my back posts.

I purchased my home in 2012. Upstate NY. Every other house has a ng boiler with hot water baseboard for heat. The other half is central air for more modern built homes. It was built in 1971 and had a National boiler(by Amana) which i believe was 150,000 btu Input. It was Installed(poorly) when...

https://www.highseer.com/products/wyt-serie-12-000-btu-ductless-dc-inverter-mini-split-air-conditioner-heat-pump-230-vac $628. Half the cost of your daiken. And honestly it’s your garage. Just sayin.

Newshockerguy. I would buy the cheapest of the three and put that one in, considering where you are. Also i’d prolly stick with a 12kbtu unit. 18 is too much for 22x22x11, unless you are in the desert or the garage is poorly insulated. Also consider off brands. I installed a 18kbtu Pioneer with...

Not an hvac tech. But i did install a fuji and pioneer unit from scratch myself. Fuji was 24kbtu with an 18k head and 7k head. Pioneer is 18kbtu with 2 9kbtu heads. I suggest oversizing. These ramp down as they are inverter mini splits. They slow down to nothing. Question to all here. Does no...

My pioneer splits have a thermometer in their remotes. Its a ‘follow me’ feature. It is ‘more’ accurate than the head reading return air by approx 3-4°f.

Need to replace 8 windows on my house. It must be done before this winter. I could easily take out the old replacement windows and pit in my own. The sizes are standardized and the Pella 150 series windows i plan on ising are in stock and easily available at my local lowes. The difficult part...

I suppose my situation is a bit different. Not sure where you hail from. I have ductless minisplits which are mildly oversized in upstate NY. . I wouldn’t, but If i were to ever let the house get to 90+(which it could easily, we are forcasted for 99°f thursday) my splits can easily have the...
