Stephen,
I didn't mean to have my comments considered 'advice'! I can only convey my experience, which has been great with a similar size unit here in southeast PA for 13 years. It heats/cools the 24 X 34 X 10.5 foot space very well. I have 6" wall insulation and 12" ceiling insulation. Also, double pane windows, and I've put double thickness of a 'bubble' type plastic insulation covering over the double size garage door. That insulates the wood door well enough that when I do an IR temp check of it with exterior temps in the high teens, the wall temps at about 62 degrees, the surface of the door insulation is about 58 degrees (heat pump thermostat set at about 65 degrees)
So happy for you that the garage will be ready for winter work.
