Thanks!

garage is heated and insulated. I keep it around 14C - 57F. The water line is buried below frost. I have 100amps in the garage and already have some 240 circuits but I dont have more space in the panel currently for another 240v breaker

okay that sounds like what im looking for, hosing down the vehicles in cold water isnt so bad because my hands wont be in it, If i can atleast fill a bucket for the shammy that is perfect...

the underground part is about 20ft I would say, then another 15ft-20ft inside the house

thats why I am thinking of going with the temperature control valve. That way I will just always have consistent 85f water which wont be too cold for hand washing and also would be luke warm for washing by bikes and whatnot

as mentioned it wouldnt be HOT, with the temperature control valve it would be about 85f all the time

120v electric heater is pretty well my only option for water heater in the garage

New build detached garage. Only ran (1) 3/4 pex line from house as the hot water tank would be too far from the garage anyway. I currently am stuck between 2 options for hot water in the garage. either I install a small 5 gallon water heater (120v) in the garage or a tankless hot water heater -...

everything you mentioned was done, sheething taped. topplates and jack studs sealed with acoustic sealant. Vapour barrier everywhere. The slab also has r10 foamboard under it as well as vapour barrier. Also has r10 foamboard around the perimeter where it meets the stem walls. Ended up going...

r4 sheathing outside / r20 fiberglass / vapour barrier / (2) 10x10 garage doors r16 // blown in insulation in attic

how many heaters would I need and how many watts per in your opinion ?

so resistance heat would be baseboards or any electric ?

I have my harleys and all my other toys/tools in there. I would like to keep it somewhere at the 15C/60f range. Is that too much ?

Also, I forgot to mention, I do have an extra pellet stove laying around with all the piping and whatnot that I could use!

I am almost done insulating my garage and am now really unsure on what to use for heating. I originally was going to go with a mini split but I am in Canada and when we get into those colder weeks I don't know if the mini split is going to keep up. Also, the upfront cost of a minisplit is way...

just found this one, but it is a dual stage compressor but the specs show that it delivers way less CFM. I always thought dual stage was better ? https://www.rona.ca/en/product/campbell-hausfeld-37-hp-vertical-air-compressor-60-gal-175-psi-navy-xc602100-73455238

they are both single stage units with 2 cylinders. Do you have an opinion as to which may be better or can I expect the same results from both

both are 15 amp https://www.kingcanada.com/en/products/compressors-and-air-tools/air-compressors-combo-kits/kc-6160v3-stationary-65-peak-hp-60-gallon-air-compressor https://www.homedepot.ca/product/husky-60-gallon-belt-drive-oil-lube-air-compressor/1000793964

Looking to buy a 60 gallon air compressor. They both have the same RPM rating but one is 3.7hp and the other is 6.5 hp. Is there a benefit to one of the other ? Also it says the husky puts out 11.5 cfm @ 90 and the King Industrial 11.2 @ 90. I would have thought the king industrial would have...
