Hello All!
Looking for suggestions on a small (8x8) shed to house battery banks and inverters for off grid solar.
1. Regarding heating and cooling.... Any suggestions on installing an electric heater or should I go propane with a thermostat? Should I be concerned with excessive heat in the summer?
2. Ideally I would like to place the building about 50-100 feet away from our house and have it partially in the ground to allow the earth to help with temps. (I'm worried about ground water entering the building though if it's below grade!)
3. Insulation in the building should help with keeping the building at a safe temperature, any suggestions on best insulation methods? It will most likely be a 2x4 stud wall.
