Install and top vent wall heater in a garage?
Question by david d: Install and top vent wall heater in a garage?
I have a Williams Monteray 35,000BTU top vented wall heater that I want to install in my garage. The problem is where I want to install it, I would have to vent it thru the wall instead of the roof. Is there a problem with venting it thru the wall using a thimble (assuming that there are no issues with where the exhaust gases are venting to)?

The first vent pipe offset may not be closer than 2′-0″ from the header plate.

Q&A: Can i install a spilt system air con, above a gas wall heater?
Question by Nick M: Can i install a spilt system air con, above a gas wall heater?
I want to install the indoor unit of my split system air conditioner above on old vulcan gas wall heater/furnace (working). I obviously wont be using them at the same time, but just wondering if the heat will affect the the air con unit. There is probably about 600mm between the heater and the roof, so the air con could go in there?

Mark on the wall and equally from each end of the radiator, the position where the channel bracket is to be fixed to the wall.

What is the most efficient type of electric baseboard heat (permanent install)?
Question by markm: What is the most efficient type of electric baseboard heat (permanent install)?
I am looking to replace some 40-year-old electric baseboard heating units, hopefully with something more efficient. There doesn’t seem to be any standardized energy efficiency rating system for these, and i have yet to find a serious objective performance/efficiency comparison of the many available brands.
Also, i am wondering if the initial (considerably greater) expense of hydronic-type heaters pays off in the long run with substantial electric-bill savings.
Personal experiences welcomed.

Answer by Mike
Electric heat is the most expensive in the long run BY FAR! You’re on the right track with the hydronic- type. Power it with a solar evacuated tube system and watch the money build up in your bank account instead of flying out the window.

What’s the best heating system to install in this house?
Question by whitewolfe: What’s the best heating system to install in this house?
We are considering purchasing a home that has no conventional heating system and no basement. It was originally a hunter’s cabin that was added onto over the years. It’s a very interesting home with lots of great features and a LOT of land, but it basically has no heating system and no basement in which to install a furnace. This home is in Massachusetts.
The previous owners used only a wood burning stove and space heaters. I don’t want to rely on the stove, I would prefer conventional heating. What kinds of heating systems could be installed without spending megabucks?
I think electric baseboard would be the easiest, but I hear it’s not a great choice for cold climates. I’ve also heard about radiant floor heat, and found a company online that says it will only cost .50 square foot to install (the home is no more than 1500) and that seems pretty cheap, and from what I can understand, it’s more efficient? But doesn’t the floor have to be ripped up?
What would be best?
Well, it has absolutely nothing underneath the house, but it does have a decent, clean crawl space in between the 1st and 2nd floors, if that is what you mean. 
A system can be installed in there? There is no attic. Interesting thoughts about the radiant heat, I didn’t realize that they were water pipes.

Answer by shaula359
I think radiant floor heating would work well in a place like that, but it would mean having to redo pretty much every floor in the house. It is, however, quite efficient. I think the cost return would be good as well and add value to the place should you decide to resell later.
