Yup, there is the fire thing to consider. Chances are that if there is a fire big enough to get that high it's a done deal anyway. Original insulation: I am considering taping the creases where the rolls meet while I am up there (before the Prodex or whatever goes on). I find it interesting that my centers are 20". Guess that was to make the spacing even for the pitch length. Going to chat with the Prodex people again as far as...

Put up some plastic to keep the heat from escaping out the roof... I had a 30X30 unisulated shop years ago... I lined the entire shop with plastic (be carefull with welding, etc) and it actually heated pretty good with a small radiant heater.

Re: what is a good brand radiant tube heater?? I hear that! Should I do anything with the concrete underneath or on the sides of the concrete to insulate it? Or is that not necessary. I will be putting in a 4 post lift also.

Holy smokes, 38gpg is very hard! I have 30gpg here and it's pretty bad. If I boil a pot of water, where the water was after I empty it will be all white from the minerals. kenfath I would probably figure a way to sign up for that, then put a softener back in They say it's fine for septic tanks, so I don't see how it would hurt the town's sewer system. Wookie, look in the yellow pages, some companies will test your water for...

Re: How to seal off my garage door... boost insulation... Pics ixlr8, I like it! I scrounged around and found a price for a 7' double door, installed, of $1,500 and some change. That seems like a pretty decent price. How does your door compare with other insulated doors? I finally got my heater wired up... Took me three days, two temper tantrums , one smashed thumb, one cut finger, and one angry wife I need a

Okay, let me throw this out there... I was looking at website that sells SunStar tube heaters and saw this...

When you say "very aware" of CO...you mean you are aware that it CO is colorless, odorless, and will kill you in less than a minute in high enough concentrations? A "ventless" propane heater isn't just a burner with no flue. It's a burner that has been designed to burn gas and air at a level so close to the correct proportions, that no CO is produced. All "ventless" heating...

Thank you all for your responces, I am trying some ideas as I go, but I dont have much time to post (Christmas shopping), I will give updates as I figure stuff out. Thank you.

I just hung mine. Mine is hung where my ceiling goes up in the garage...on one side, it is screwed to the floor joists, on the other (high) side, it is hung with chain. I have the same hum...not that bad, but noticeable. Haven't figured out how to resolve it yet, either.
