I have a 1000 square foot woodworking shop with 9 foot ceilings - so about 9000 cubic feet. Will this unit handle that capacity?

It's a good unit. Try one and see if it handles your shop capacity. If it doesn't, add a second unit.

I have it in a 450 SF shop with 10 ft ceilings. It works great. It is the only unit of its kind I could find that had a remote that would actually transmit consistently when other remote-controlled tools and appliances are running: furnace, 3hp dust collector, AC, etc. The filters are easy to get to, take out, clean and reinstall. It is reasonably quiet, even on its "full power" setting. In short, I have been very happy with it after over two years of very heavy use. Powermatic recommends two units if being used in a "very large" area, but their website and manual don't quantify that. It might be a good idea to contact them directly and ask their tech support folks about square/cubic foot capacities. I have it in a 450 SF shop with 10 ft ceilings. It works great.

This unit runs at about 1200 cubic feet per minute so it will change the air, in your space, in less than 10 minutes. Of course, you won't have perfect circulation, I think it would work fine. If you use dust collection at the source, such as pa Festool sander with dust collection, dust in your shop will be less of an issue.

My basement shop is divided in half. The woodworking side is about 1000 sq. ft with 8 ft. ceiling. That is where the unit is mounted. I use the other side for applying finish. I have no dust problems with finishing even though I have no door in the doorway between the two sides. The filter is a standard size so you have a very good selection of filter type. Put $ into filters and you should be happy with is unit. It is quiet enough to leave running on low. On high it will clear the air (when I forget to turn it on first) in less than 5 minutes. Mine is suspended from the ceiling above my miter saw and sanding station. The remote works perfectly. I have it wall mounted for convenience. My basement shop is divided in half.

I have a 1310 sq ft condo will this be more effective than your 3.5 ton unit. I uill be replacing an existing unit from the 70, s

I am sure that it would not work in a 141 by 141 warehouse. It might work in a 400 square foot warehouse.

I have 832 sq ft on a the 1st level and 512 sq ft upstairs in a well insulated outbuilding (Michigan). My unit is 60,000 BTU, in my 2nd winter and doing fine.

I live in a small studio loft and have one of these both upstairs and downstairs. I would imagine it will not suffice for a large home, however I feel some humidity supplied is better than none.

No it will not. Each box cover a little over 21 sq ft and you are covering 63 sp ft. You would need 4 boxes

I don't know for sure since it does not seem to be in the book that we received with it, but we are using it in a semi-finished daylight basement that is about 800 - 900 square feet. I built a platform and have it draining through a window that is raised about 1 inch and is resealed with insulation. If you want to handle anything larger it would be best to get a heavy duty unit.

Don't see why it wouldn't work, but probably overkill unless there is lots of cubic feet under it?

The correct answer is; it depends on your CUBIC footage, not your square footage. Multiply your height x length and width to get your cubic footage. This device is rated for 1,100 cubic feet. If your room is, say, 10 feet by 20 feet, that's 200 square feet. Now add your ceiling height. If your ceilings are 7 feet tall, then your total cubic footage is 1,400 cubic feet, more than this device is rated for. You would need 2 devices or the next size up to get proper drying.

This unit will not humidify the area that it claims. It will handle two large rooms at best. If you have 1800 sqft I would recommend getting two units.

I don't believe so. I have 1100 sq.ft. bought the first one for the LR then liked it so much got another one for the rest. My LR is 300 sq.ft. with doors to close it off from rest of house. Maybe it has to do with my 14 ft ceilings

We have not used ours in a large space, but imagine it would work fine in a 100 square foot space. Not sure about 500 though.

I multiplied the two numbers and 625 sq/ft is your footage. I think the heater would be suitable in that kind of space. Make sure you always shut it off outdoors because of some un burnt fumes that will be produced because it's still hot. Then bring it back indoors. It's a great heater! I have 2

This should. I did a 12k unit. The bolt holes give flexibility for many different sized units and it should support the weight. It was pretty easy to install and comes with concrete anchors if you need them. I put mine into wood so I just got a few long Stainless wood screws.

Mine used almost 4 cubic feet. It hasn't had time to settle though, so I may need to add some more as it does.

You probably should contact the manufacturer to get their answer. The unit is rated for a "large room" and I suspect that 500 sq ft would fall into that category.

I would suggest you confirm it can handle the weight of your stack. If it can, the feet of the bottom unit should be able to be secured in the holes in the corner bracket. Keep in mind, however, that this only has two wheels that swivel so it is going to turn on a dime. It will need some maneuvering room. Otherwise, it should work just fine in my opinion.
