1.25 ish.

24/6 basically. Printers run over night unattended. first guy comes in 5-7am. day guy is 11-4. then first guy returns some point in evening most days.

didnt take long

crazy to think that you've been able to elevate your business to the level that requires/justifies a dedicated building. I mess around with my printer and design some fun stuff here and there, but never stuff I feel would sustain a whole building payment. hahaha

 

[runit]

amazing this endeavour is supporting this build! Love it!

sidebar......how did you advertise when starting out? getting over that initial hump and getting above the noise can be tricky.

more shocking is the building is over 1/4 paid off already.

creators in the 15-50k subs are very receptive compared to those in the 500k+ category.

Ugh....was hoping for a quiet day of driving to talk nerd stuff on printers and see the empire...mother nature looks to have other plans:

running the print room AC when its -6 out means frozen condensate line.

most people i know who run minis for cold weather cooling do indoor drains for that reason.

The other option if you have year round cooling demand is to throw up a cheap standard split + air handler and run an economizer under 60F. may also help with IAQ issues (aka plastic fumes).

we really want it running in dry mode. its all good now. the rest of the units will be in heat only all winter.

also looking to add 100' off the back now...

dry mode is great, if a bit "dumb". works well enough if you have heat load.

Lemme check my notes.


Yup. We have a heat load. With the door shut and wall unit off the printers settle into 78f.

I wondered what the "equilibrium" temp in the shop would be with them humming along

Do the rooms the printers are in need to be cooler than that? Are people in that space consistently?

so figuring 85w each when running. 22k btu heat.

gona put an 8" vent fan in to pull heat into the main space.

they are very happy chugging along in the low 80s.

the people not so much.

Are they on the printer floor a lot? Do you have separate offices?

couple hours a day. so gona schedule AC and fan controls to work around that.

if you want something possibly more friendly to traditional automation, hvacquick has similar ECM inline fans with 0-10v speed control. prices seem reasonable.

ill prolly do a IFTTT switch

[mike93lx]

Meh. You can do better
