4300 Gallon Plywood Build (3600+ Take 2)

OK, I'm new to the boards and I just read all 51 pages of this. I'm fairly new to the hobby as well. Thank you so much for keeping this thread up. I'll admit some of it goes right over my head, but I'm really enjoying following along! Amazing job so far!

Put these up on the middle 4 sections of the roof between the rafters on the tank side of the room all the way up to the peak. Have to cut the short pieces from the last two to finish up then i can start putting up the insulation.

Have to wait until Sunday to do the electrical work I need to do, so that I have daylight to see. I'm too chicken to work on any electrical without the main breaker off. I know what electricity can do. A friend was electrocuted in a work-related accident.
 
One thought on heating - what kind of house heat do you have? If you have hot water/baseboard heat, i would just add another zone to supply the PEX radiator in the tank and let a thermostat control that. If you have forced hot air (which might be likely down there as you'd use that for central AC as well) then nevermind.

I'm not sure what you plan on doing for lighting, but have you considered solatubes over the tank? A few of those would probably light it up pretty well.
