Replacement unit came today. Swapped them out and it blows much hotter. I can't keep my hand in front of the unit as it is extremely hot. This is what I expected. Once I get insulation, I imagine it'll be just fine. But I get to wait till next winter for that

I'm about 475-525 ft above sea level. I'm aware about ceiling insulation. Its just that it doesn't seem to blow hot air, just really warm.

I reached out to World & main, the company that makes these, and they set me up with a warranty replacement based off of the information I gave them. We'll see. My garage is mostly insulated in the walls. Granted, I have none in the ceiling. But I can put my hand in front of the heater and...

That helps immensely. I knew something had to be wrong. I have 11 ft ceilings in my garage, but it has to do something better than this one has done. I could put my hand right up to the louvers and it didn't seem hot. And it was on the high(7500W) setting

It is a tube with fins. I understand that the temperature rise can only be so much, but I would expect a 7500W unit to blow out warmer air than an 800W 120V floor unit.

It's tight. Lots of people actually mention to move the thermostat to the outside of the unit too. you have to loosen the fan and rear grate. I did that and then re-tightened everything

Thanks everybody. I had a feeling that something was wrong with the unit when I first turned it on. I put in the recommended wire size and breaker. It barely does anything. I started a warranty process with Comfort Zone.

I do. Tried both settings actually.

Those of you guys using heaters like the Comfort Zone heater, does the heating element get red all over or does it get red at all? I just finished installing this thing, and it turns on, the fan runs, and there is heat that comes out of it. It's a 220v hard wire connection. Tested voltage at...

Got some lighting installed in the garage over the weekend. 8 ft long led shop lights. I wired them in 3’s. A switch to turn on the front 3 and a switch for the back 3 Sent from my iPhone using The Garage Journal mobile app

Just replacing. I got the frs from copart as a flood salvage car. Water in the cyls when they were determining if they could bill it as a running driving car. Sent from my iPhone using The Garage Journal mobile app

So I just got done applying the sealer on the garage floor. I used legacy industrial hd6525mma. What floor wax is compatible with this sealer? Here are some pictures of the floor. Sent from my iPhone using The Garage Journal mobile app

Have you tried a deck brush? I had some tire mark on new concrete that I just put some elbow grease into with a hard bristle deck brush. Sent from my iPhone using The Garage Journal mobile app

Here’s what I used for the sawcuts. It was this or a mongoose. This was $400 on amazon. The mongoose is a $2500 tool Sent from my iPhone using The Garage Journal mobile app

Thank you all for the compliments. The floor is still a work in progress. A bit more staining to do, and then sealing it. Then I'll get to wiring the rest of garage.

Yes, the lines are sawcuts. I've done a bunch of research on coloring concrete. It is Acid stained, and I found the best way to keep colors separate are by putting sawcuts in the floor. I currently have a couple of cars that are projects. A 93 240sx, an 86 fiero SE, and a 2013 Scion FRS
