I am building a new garage and plan to have a well insulated small shop addition off one side of the garage. The shop / reloading area would measure 14x20' (just 280 square feet and 8' high walls....but with a vaulted ceiling).
I'm trying to figure out an economical way to heat and cool this space and I am concerned about moisture and open flames. Likely I could run a small wall A/C unit for summer.
Located in Minnesota.....the right heat is important (we can get to -30f) and I will need some reliable heat to keep moisture off my reloading gear and guns and my tools. I am considering an in-floor radiant system with either a small electric or natural gas boiler or an electric hanging unit. I don't want to spend a fortune...still....I want something that works good.
I'm looking for suggestions. Anyone up in the north country with experience in heating a small reloading and gun room like this?
