I often refinish outdated furniture as a hobby in my spare time. I visit local flea markets, garage sales, estate sales and antique stores and find sturdy, hardwood furniture for honestly low prices. These pieces have correctly been painted over many times, are missing hardware or disfigured in some way. I prefer stripping the paint and uncovering the original woodgrain. I prefer making these pieces elegant and useful again. I’ve recently started reselling the furniture and making a tidy profit. I decided I needed a dedicated space where I could labor on the furniture all year round, no matter the weather. The dust, fumes and noise I create don’t allow me to labor inside the house. I ended up building a small shed in the backyard. It was easy to run electric to the shed however I had some difficulty determining how to handle temperature control. I was unwilling to invest a ton of cash into heating and cooling a shed. I didn’t have a fantastic deal of room to accommodate bulky device and whatever I chose needed to run on electricity, however after quite a bit of research, I came across ductless heat pumps. A ductless component is comprised of a fairly compact outdoor compressor and a honestly streamlined and lightweight indoor air handler. The two components are linked by a conduit that requires a several-inch hole in an exterior wall. The method was fairly high-priced to purchase, however I managed to install it myself. It provides both heating and cooling and effectively dehumidifies and filters out contaminants. It runs silently and is exceptionally energy efficient.
