cool. sounds like a successful project you had.

yes, i'm planning on doing the install myself. it doesn't look too hard. only the wall temp requirement that's probably a PITA. our basement is relatively sizable. i haven't measured the actual wall length, but would guesstimate it around 120LF with 8ft ceilings

ETA: by the way, nelson, the drill you're using for installing the tapcons: is that just a regular drill? no hammer drill? do the tapcons come with a specific masonry bit?

Yes, or you have to buy it separately.
A hammer drill is faster.
