Shed

Outbuilding ledger — storage, structural maintenance, HVAC, electrical, organization. First record: AC / heat-pump installation planning (single-zone ductless mini-split needed for year-round comfort, equipment protection, and reducing ambient humidity that ages stored items faster).

Stub record opened 21 May 2026. Target product: Amazon-sourced inverter ductless mini-split heat pump (pre-charged refrigerant, wall remote, self-install). Drives temperature regulation + humidity reduction in the shed — critical for stored equipment longevity (electronics, motors, fabrics, paint, fertilizer chemistry). BTU sizing + install requirements TBD.

Electrical run

New dedicated feed from the house to the shed · underground route · 40 A 4-wire circuit

⚠ Planning · seeking electrician

Opened 9 Sep 2026. Plotting the power run: the proposed underground route (four site photos), the load & circuit spec, permits, and session notes. Per Joel (9 Sep 2026), the existing three-wire feed is insufficient for a 4-wire shed panel — a 40 A circuit is needed. Feeds the mini-split; same trade as the gate-power trench.
