[QUOTE="grcthird, post: 631008, member: 1181"] My father in law does hvac so he came across the AC unit used and we put it in, it's really too small and can't keep up on really hot days but it still is nice to have some cool air and it cuts the humidity down. I like having the high pitch roof, there is enough room for a second story if you wanted a garage condo type of space. I plumbed all the air lines with the max air 3/4 kit from northern tool in one afternoon, and I have a hose reel on each lift and another drop by the press since it is air operated. I will probably add another line over to the door to air up tires outside and I really need a drop for the tire machine. We used a contactor for the compressor motor power that is energized by the pressure switch. A couple of things I would change, there are no skylights and only a small window in the office, if I were to build one it would get some windows up high to let light in and so I could see when it's getting dark so I know to go my ass home, not uncommon for me to look up from working and it be 10 or 11 at night in the winter. Low ceiling office space would get moved to a lean to addition in the parking lot so as to not take up space where a lift (or 2 in my case) could go under the high roof, more outside doors would be better for how I use mine. Future stuff I want, a BIG ASS fan because it gets stupid hot in the summer, and a good floor coating in a light gray to reflect some light back up under the cars, the 6 metal halide lights are good for overall lighting, but get under a car with the big door closed on a cold day or at night, and it's just plain dark under there. I love this place and my wife has consistently ask when I'm coming home. :****: Eric and Rusty were a huge help getting some stuff done when I first set it up. [/QUOTE]
