Hello,

I would like to install a Dayton, ceiling mounted, electric heater in
my 2 1/2 car garage/woodshop.

The heater runs on 208 or 240volts - 36.5amps - 7,500watts and puts out
25,600BTUs.

What size awg wire would I need for this heater?

The wire will run from the main panel and hard wired to the heater.

It 'sounds' like #8AWG.
But?
Wiring distance is not given. Is it a separate free standing
garage/woodshop building? Or attached to house?
Questions?
Voltage drop/wiring distance?
Is/will there be other electrical wiring to that woodshop/garage area?
If so is it a separate service or are outlets, garage lights, shop
tools etc. also wired to other fuses/circuit breakers on the same main
panel? Cos there are some rules about having 'mixed' services in same
building?
