Re: Building a garage - any suggestions?
Yup, cost me $900 a season to heat my 40x60. I did it 2 seasons, and it was the same each time, i burned 300 gallons propane. I installed it myself (did heating work for years) used Radiant tech for the design, had one of my heating guys build the manifold. did foam underlayment, foamed the outsides, seals, you name it we did it. I'm sitting on 20 ft of blasted ledge, we think that was some of the issue, the rock under the foam and sand was pulling the heat out of the floor.
I shut it down, filled it with anti freeze and put in a Hawt Dog 125k furnace. Heats the shop to 60 in 10 minutes. And i only use it when i'm out there, so i burned 60 gallons in the last 2 years.
