- This is my Nov-Dec heating bill and remember, this is for Minnesota and this bill is for 32 days. Using the Width x Height x Length will give you the cubic ft of the shop , so you can do a cost comparison. This is just a rough cost since each shop is different and with more/less doors, then yours will fluctuate. It shouldn't be much more then a 10-20% difference though! Remember this is for RADIANT FLOOR heating, which is more efficient then forced air

Jason, man i love your Pole Barn videos-very helpful... Im out in Elk River. -Taylor
Jason- do you think adding a wood stove - even if its part-time would cut that bill down?
Thanks for watching them!
I think that’s equivalent only using a 18,000btu (1.5 to ) system to heat the whole space. Great job!
Curious what the electrical side of the system consumes
Each pump uses about 0.65 amps so maybe 2 amps an hour for panel and heater is minimal. My basic charge for meter is higher then my pumps running whole month!
Maybe I missed it but what temp are you keeping your building at?
I keep it at 58 degrees. I tried it at 63 degrees , but with radiant flooring, that was too hot. Maybe if you were sitting in there and not doing any work, it would be fine. If you plan on doing any work or moving around, then below 60 is a good temp. You can feel the warmth coming off concrete floor , different then forced air.
