What's the problem? Just rip the sheetrock off -- and put some insulation in there!!! There's probably a lot of sheetrockers looking for work right now... so should be cheap to re-do it. LOL
Oh - and while you're at it - fire off the ol' chainsaw and put a window in there! And some A/C hanging out of it... Now you got yourself a man room!! :lol: |

Call your local metal building supplier and get a price on a roll of it. It may be cheaper??? I had a roll left over from a building that was put up at my dad's business. I actually just cut a hole in my wall and installed the window unit. |
I use a Porta Cool. Its a big swamp cooler on wheels. You hook a hose up to one end to get the water flowing. I love it, it makes a BIG difference.

My house has boxes that are made for A/C units in the walls . They look like window units but are made for through wall instalation. You could put them up high and not lose any wall space.

We use a swamp cooler on one end(you can see it in the back ground of pic) and we use a big fan at the other. I agree, this 100 percent humitdy and 100 degree weather makes for a loooong day. And the worse ones are the ones when it is like this and you have been on grinder all day and your skin is covered with shavings and dirt:mad: If you go with a swamp cooler, you can also throw frozen 2 liter jugs of water or sacks of ice in it and it makes a big difference in temps.

Check with local HVAC dealers
There's a lot of retrofitting of old heatpumps with one of the new super-efficient ones and you can probably pick one up for a song. When I got my new house unit, I asked about keeping the old one (over 20 years old)for the new garage. The dealer said just to let him know when I wanted one and he would sell me a 5 year old takeoff unit for $100. Said to pour a slab outside and duct it through the wall. Cheap heat and A/C.
