My favorite thing about Ronald's videos is that each is basically him going into a project thinking it will probably be easier than working on his other project, but then it ends up being an inception of problems within problems. For some of the problems, Ronald feels like he can spend the extra team fixing them perfectly, and some of them he just uses tape or something depending on his mood that day.

@@bwofficial1776 In some municipalities it is a different permit process and requirements if you build an entirely new structure. Removing one wall at a time was a "renovation" project and not a "construction" project. A lot of restaurants and small businesses follow this rule and will leave one existing wall standing while they build around it so the city cannot call it new construction. This happens a lot when a structure is grandfathered into an existing permitting, code limitation, or other red-tape related issue.

So as a HVAC technician and someone who likes your channel I feel like I need to tell you that I’m pretty sure I saw in the video that you just rounded up all the extra refrigerant lines behind the unit. Which isn’t a issue because you do have to have a minimum line set length but the fact that you put the condenser relatively close to the wall plus you have the refrigerant lines bunched up behind the unit (we’re the condenser coil is located) it’s going to cause the air flow across those coil fins to decrease. You can fix this by just bringing the unit out an extra foot or two away from the wall while leaving the extra line set right up against the wall (It will look kinda ugly,but work). Other than that I don’t see anything you could do without just moving the condenser head until you have no extra line set creating almost no slack taking up the air space behind that the unit requires to cool properly. This would also make your life easier when it comes to cleaning the coil which I do suggest doing every 6 months seeing how your in Texas and and your going to be running that unit almost always in cooling. And seeing how you have this in a shop with all kinds of dust and grease, I heavily suggest you cleaning the filters in the condenser head at least every month if not weekly. Otherwise you will learn how to take that mini split head apart just to replace a blower motor and to clean the blade. But yeah, hope those points are helpful to you and I didn’t just waist both are times telling you stuff you already knew. Video point were I’m talking about “ 24:53 “ .

Thats the bad part of the DYI kits sold....all the extra copper. As a Pipefitter, I would have cut the excess, brazed couplings, pulled a vacuum to clean the lines and then check the charge.

@@dirtydogfpv1159 You braze couplings there in the US? In Italy we cut and flare the conical faces with a small tool directly on the pipes and that's it (if you have remembered to put the nut on the pipe before flaring it). We do vacuum the lines, also to avoid having any moisture in them, which could freeze in the pipes, or (as a quick fix) we open the send valve with the return pipe not tightened and close the circuit when you can smell the gas coming out.

@ I can’t speak for everyone, but here in my jurisdiction (I’m union) that’s how we have done it for years. Occasional flared connection. Press fittings are starting to catch on now as well in refrigeration. Worked on a job recently where the customer wanted it on their refrigeration lines. Times are changing, but I still prefer brazed lines run plumb, level and square to the world. That coiled up section hurts my brain.

Just built a similar, albeit smaller shop. 12x25. Nice job on your new workshop! Some thoughts: As you found out, assemble conduit, then pull wire. Use fish tape, a plastic bag, and a shop vac to suck the fish tape though, then pull the wire. Use lots of lube and bring a friend lol. Not sure if you’re going by the 2023 NEC, but you probably need expansion couplings where your pvc leaves the ground. It is designed to compensate for soil movement. For aluminum wiring, it’s very important to torque the wires to the rated torque. Get a small torque wrench or screwdriver to do this. Proper grading is really important. You want the ground to slope away from your shop. It’s probably too late for this, but I wrapped my shed in 1” of poly iso insulation. It’s an additional r-6 and eliminates thermal bridging from the studs. It’s very nice, and not too expensive. I ran fiber optic in my power feed conduit to provide internet for the shop. You could do point to point connection, or similar. Getting water away from the shop is important, gutters and a French drain was my solution. Your shop will be so comfortable once the attic insulation goes in.

@@AaronJohnsonSTL Truly depends on what you go for. Some plug sockets we sell are a little pricey, especially when there is a lot of them, now thats company work obviously. DIY is a different story, but you have to be careful what you buy, buying cheap often means buying twice. When i helped renovate our small workshop my stepdad bless his old heart bought the cheapest he could get, and i *HATED* putting them in, absolute nightmare. There's a reason i go more pricey and follow what my company buys, because i know its genuine quality, although i admit the quality of the plug sockets had dropped a while back, but they picked up again. Of course, our electrical codes, outlets and basically everything differ. Wow what a rant, my bad. Point is, you gotta be smart about what you buy and where you get the knowledge from. Also, running wires in conduit and piecing them together one after the other, after pulling in said wire, is a violation? What kind of bs standards you got over there? Makes literally no difference, we do it all the time, the spanish do it with flexible single core throughout every building (Their wiring drove me mad as a german electrician). Not to mention, Germany is the land of Standards and Norms, its a nightmare, but even we know when something is ridiculous like *that*. Unless of course there is a legitimate reason why, then i understand.

Excellent video...thanks for all the quality content! When I did my shop, I also wanted a bunch of outlets around the perimeter. However, I wanted to ensure I could run multiple tools simultaneously in the same physical areas of the shop so I placed my outlets 5' apart along the walls but I ran each bank on two separate circuits...alternating the outlet's circuit around the perimeter. This, in effect, made every other outlet a different circuit so I could plug two high amp tools in and run them in the same area of the shop without overloading one circuit.

Ronald, I was hoping you would fix my dogs parent's marriage for Hanukkah this year, but this will work too. Congrats on making it to 2 uploads this 2024, can't wait to see how you plan to fix the gas tank (again) on the GPZ lol

Long time, no video. Glad to see a new one. Nice progress in the garage. I’m sure a thousand people are gonna say this, but once you add insulation to the roof, it’s actually gonna make the biggest difference. 80% of all your heat gain is from the roof. But another entertaining and interesting video. Some day it will be a nice workshop

This is basically what he did. OSB, studs and insulation, OSB. You can tell because the inside wall had a grid of lines on it and because you would totally talk about sheetrock if you do it, as it's a pain to do

Another way to do it is to put windproof fabric to the studs on the outside, then horizontal slats to which you fasten wood paneling or whatever material you want as facade.

So nice to watch a new video from You Ronald. Thank you 🙏🏻 I always enjoyed watching your videos. They’re honest, technical and entertaining simultaneously. Especially the honest part about the efforts you make in order to make it all happen for us, is a very strong point in my opinion. It makes watching your videos something to look forward to. Realizing that I got it easy as a viewer, i’m grateful for all the content you posted over the years. I hope you get a lot of gratitude coming your way because you deserve it! I’ll stay tuned for more of your content and don’t worry about how long that might take. Hope you have a nice holiday season and a good 2025 with good prosperities 🙏🏻 See you Ronald, God bless you 👋🏻

This series truly does go to show why people just knock things like this down and re-build em'. There's absolutely something to be said for fixing it, instead of replacing it; just as with a car. Mad respect.

It may take a lot more time, but it does save on materials, such as not pouring new footers, reusing the existing rafters, etc. Also, there was never a time where there was no roof on the shop.

I'll be honest, when I saw your first garage video, my thought was "You should just knock it down" I still feel like that was the easy answer, but you made it work so congrats! Also doesn't look like you'll be needing the heating function of the MrCool, since we've barely had any cold weather here this year. Keep the vids coming, and we look forward to whatever your next project is!

Nice installation and garage build ! Pro tip: read the instructions. Like the instructions in the Mr. Cool installation manual that say to not leave the extra lineset coiled in a vertical position but rather to lay it flat so oil lock doesn't kill the compressor. Have an hvac bro help you and modify/change that lineset. Happy New Year !
