That's one thing my garage workshop is gonna need. No windows tho - gonna need one of those free standing units

I cut a square in the back wall just big enough for the window unit and framed it with 2x4's then packed the small space with insulation before I slid the unit all the way in place. Finished it off with spray foam in the small gap on the outside. I'll be making and insulated box to go over the outside of the unit for winter. Only thing left to do is insulate the walls then finishing the walls and ceiling with 1/4" plywood and a black & white checkered vinyl tile floor.
That would be a bit difficult. I guess a floor unit will have to do. They cool pretty well from what I've heard.Nice. I'd Have to hack a hole thru concrete block

They make vent panels to replace the solid panels. They have a one way flapper inside to keep critters out. All you do is hook the hose up to it when you need to run the unit. The panel is flush on the out side so it doesn't interfere with the operation of the door. My buddy is a mechanic and put one in his door so he can run a car with the doors closed to keep his heat and A/C in the garage.I'll have to figure out a venting solution. Under the smaller garage door seems clumsy. Maybe a vent thru the garage door somehow

Split system FTW.
Simple 2" hole in the wall.

How does that work? Heat vents thru a 2" hole??
it is the small version of
it is the small version of central A/C - the power, liquid, return, and condensate lines all go through the wall behind the indoor unit.
the outdoor unit is small, and doesn't take up alot of room. many come pre-charged, and it is just a matter of plugging in the lines,
hooking up electric, and turning it on.
it can act as a dehumidifier, some are reversible, and act as heaters (heat pump)
That would work, probably will need 24K btu to cool the whole garage. Certainly don't need heat tho. How hard is it to drill a 2" hole thru concrete block?
hollow block is easy. assuming you go through the hollow part!
