Keep it up man! Started following the thread for the awesome car stuff, and I'm really enjoying the garage build process bit too.

In addition to getting the wrapping up to the eaves, use a large broom to sweep the majority of the water off the slab, and run fans inside. Air movement will help get the water into the air far more quickly. Also, run all the space heaters you have inside the shop area. Won't make a huge difference to the overall internal temperature, but warmer air = faster absorption of water. You won't likely hit 100% relative humidity, so I wouldn't worry too much about water dropping out as it cools. Conversely you could throw down a bunch of salt, which would lower the freezing point of water, but I'm not sure what damage that might do to the slab. I'm assuming you can't turn on the in floor heating yet as it's not fully connected, right?

My garage has 240/1P, what size service are you trying to get? Most electric motors are tri-voltage these days (208-230/460) so unless you need 230/3P 460 is better because your wire size can be smaller. And I figured you had already thought about sweeping the water off / the rest of it (and probably the above electrical stuff too!) but hey, never know!

Ah, cool stuff. Phase converters are loving expensive though. If you hit that point take a look at using a VFD to generate the extra phase instead. Not sure if it's just because of the quantities we buy where I work, but typically our pricing on VFD's is better than phase converters.

Man that tank is worth more than 100$. I'm guessing it's got a little relay panel to go with it? Jealous, I wish I could find something like that for a hundred bux.

I can't wait to see you tear it apart and build it back up

Love the updates, but typically don't post because I don't have much to add other than great work. I really enjoy all the fabrication stuff, like those mounts and how you fixed them.
