Here is a quick recap on the current weather situation, what insulation I am running in my shop, and how I am heating it using a 240V heater instead of the radiant floor heating that I originally set up.

If you’re trying to figure out how much heat (or A/C) your own shop needs, I built a spreadsheet that does the math with your county’s weather and your insulation: Shop A/C & Heat Calculator.

Hope you enjoy! Post up in the comments with your thoughts and ideas!

As I said in the video, if I was to buy a 240V heater again, I would get the ‘dumb’ kind with a knob instead of a control panel. One more like this: https://amzn.to/3HogzRe
