Wanted, garage heat!
Looking to get some heat in my garage. Something like a 60k BTU NG forced air heater. Need a gas line ran, a heater, and installation. Anyone know someone that does this for a reasonable price, any referrals?

Re: Wanted, garage heat!
they are so easy to put in. I put one in the town house in maple grove and then when we moved I put it in the house in plymouth.
best place to find a good size one is on k-bid

He said that he could do it. He is out about 2 weeks right now and would want to look at the job before quoting a price. He can also get good prices on furnaces.
If anyone wants a quote PM me with your contact info and I'll get it to him.

Re: Wanted, garage heat!
Just put it in, it's about as tough as putting in a carburetor.

There is a CL ad that looks promising, I'll forward it to you to see if it's someone you've already tried.

To get from my line/furnace area to my garage will take some work. Not something I want to tackle my first time.

Re: Wanted, garage heat!
Gas line is super easy now, use the flexible stainless stuff. I just ran a line 55' and it took me an hour to do it. CSST is what they call it and Menards has the better stuff. Should only need a 1/2" line run to it. I scored a 30k BTU heater on CL for $35 to supplement the in floor heat. All hooked up and heating for $150 total.

Hmm. I may investigate this option. I may just mount the heater, run this kind of line, and then see how I feel about the last connection to the houses gas line.
What's used to seal the connections? Would I be shutting down the entire houses gas supply to do this or just the section I'm working on?

Re: Wanted, garage heat!
I installed a ventless heater a couple years ago. The supply coming into my house is 2 psi. The heater will list specifications for gas pressure. IIRC, the specs for input pressure on mine mine were 5-10.5" inches of water. I had to install a regulator and put together a diy manometer to set the pressure. The heater won't work right if the pressure is wrong.
