I spent numerous hours cleaning out my garage Last month. Most of the time was spent on devising a better organization program for my tools & storage boxes. Good organization results in freed space that can be used for any number of things. My fiance wants a place to keep his spare art supplies because his studio is already cramped as it is. She paints & sculpts clay pottery, & between the different glazes & the spare clay, he can use every bit of additional space that he can get. When I had finished clearing out a large section of the garage for his pottery supplies & tools, I decided I’d sweep & mop all of the exposed floor in the garage. This is when I noticed something about the central heating & cooling system. Like many others in my area, my air handler for my central Heating & Air Conditioning program hangs from the ceiling in my tepid garage. It isn’t suggested to put an air handler exposed in an uninsulated attic, let alone in a garage space. Right now it gets so tepid in here that condensation beads up on the outside metal surfaces of the air handler when it cycles during the morning hours. I called my heating & cooling company & their solution was to add a drip guard underneath. It looks like a large cookie sheet with three-inch high walls that hangs below the air handler to catch any condensation forming on the outside of the machine. Once enough of the water gathers in the drip guard, it flows into the condensate line for the Heating & Air Conditioning program where it’s deposited outdoors.
