Sorry we goofed!  :)

Frank, JR also suggested this.  I am planning on insulating the crap out of the place before any boiler goes in. I think a comfortable temp for working on cars is 60 deg.  That's cool for sitting around but if you're working, you're moving, and that should be fine.  So maybe I should look into the idea of using a water heater and circulating pump.  If I went that way, I would probably want to fill the system with a solution containing RV antifreeze or something similar, so that if the system failed I wouldn't end up with a bunch of broken pipes.  

I have a lot to learn before this system will be going into use.
