If you are talking about the paticular furnace in my garage you would loose, cause I have modified it! The paticular furnace I have I Installed in a friends house back in 1988, Three years ago he wanted a new one so I aquired this one. It had a bad blower motor and circuit board which I replaced.

Sooooo you are familar I take it with the Carrier line of furnaces? I was a stocking dealer for 10 years and stillpurchase them for jobs occasionally.

Alrighty then. My guess would be 9596.45 btu/hr to keep it status quo with all of the information you provided. That's my final answer, and I'm sticking to it. I hope you not only provide your answer, but also the calcs for us math dweebs. The only error I can see would be the r-values for the building materials. This guess takes in consideration the heat gains you listed also. You can ship the DVD regual postage?? :horseplay:

By the way, that is a really awesome setup you have. Jelousy is in the air! :hide:

5,500 btu once all the good red iron is heated up. may take 3-4 days. NICE SHOP!!!!!! :rolley :hide:

Duke 30,000 is way overboard after reading everything else that you have put in this post I like the idea of about 4,500 btu's. Burly P.S. I still would like to have one of those dvd's whether I win or not. See Ya
