  Ken,  I used to do A/C work myself and you are correct. My rave was more
based out of frustration
and heat, expecting a cold blast.  I returned the previous unit and got
another brand and am satified
with the performance. I have yet to insulate my ceiling, which is first on
my list.  My garage is split
into two sections, one for the laundry and the other is "my"
room. This sections measures about
10ftx10ft with an 8ft ceiling. Once I seal and insulate I am sure it will
cool down to my liking.
            Sorry to all on the list for my rave and off subject matter
listing.....
