      caper150 - care to share some more details on you floor heat. I've considered this options for when I get to build my shop.

      I'm also thinking of going Geothermal since we will probably go that route with the house (again, when we build it).

      I'm just dreaming at this point, but I like to learn as much as I can from others choices.

      Thanks

      I bought my whole set up at Menards, I went in and told them what size it was going to be and they gave me a quote and a material list of everything I needed. As far as putting it in I asked alot of questions and read alot from this site

      go to the heat and ac section and do a search and you'll find alot of info. This is the setup I have.

      I still have to do the insulation in the ceiling so it's not fully effiecent yet but when I had it on and it was -40 outside it was between 35 and 40 inside.I also have a 80,000BTU construction that I'll turn on and in10 min it's 60-65* then stays there for quite awhile, once the ceiling goes in I won't need to use the heater anymore.

      Saw this in Wisconsin. My wife actually said "looks like the right garage to house ratio".
