My garage is 22" x 30" and will be insulated with batting and OSB and other plywood covering the batting (not wallboard). It won't have a solid ceiling, just some platforms on the rafters for storage but the roof will be insulated and the batting will be covered with that reflective roll waffle stuff. The garage has 110 in it now (but too many tools running simultaneously flips the breaker) so 220 will have to be run in which is why I want to get the Mini-split in before I do the insulation and install on that wall. Any help would be appreciated.
