good thing. in floor heating is the most efficient form of heating, not that you’re paying the bill so who cares. as far as storing your car, in floor \> forced air blowing shit all over the place (dust et al). ---

> [@OfficerK](#): > > Probably not bad, won’t get THAT hot, and its nice to keep a car in a heated place heated concrete pads will barely get warm to the touch in my experience. They only need to heat to ~60-70 or so (or whatever you set it to) to keep the garage warm / workable / etc. In any case, heated garage \> unheated ALWAYS. ---

any well set up heated garage has some type of ventilation or way to get rid of moisture which, if the floors are heated, and concrete, the heat will mask any moisture (sweating) of the concrete mentioned. therefore it is the best IMO
