Charlie,

Do you live in the city or the country? I built a 30 X 50 shop 2 years
ago.
I put in radiant floor heat, but not the wysbro it was electric cable.
It heats offpeak @ 2.7 cents a kilowatt. Plus my rural electric company
gave a 1500.00
rebate on top of that. I installed 2 zones because I use part of the
shop for storing my lawn equip. ect. that way I can set the temp
amywhere I want it. It costs me more to turn on the lights than to heat
the whole place!!!

Hope this helps,

Fordguy

Thanks in advance for the advice.

I'd be kinda skittish about flames where gasoline fumes were
present, unless
I had really good fire insurance . . . maybe I'm overly cautious, I
dunno .

I agree, in part. I had a fire in the basement last year. I don't
give a rat's
ass how good your fire insurance is (mine was excellent), a fire is
more than a
slight inconvenience, even when everything is made "just like it
was", which it
can't be, of course.
