ok i also posted in BRS fb page

so we remodeled our garage and turned it into a home theater... heres the problem----where do i put my 55 gallon Water/mixing/ holding STATION/ barrel ..?. its one barrel that holds the rodi water and i use to mix up batches when needed.
  1. i have no room inside the house for it. that i can see.
  2. live in tenneesse (go-vols) and cold weather is here. could put it out on my covered patio with a heater. which i had a heater running in it when it was in the cars garage.
im leaning toward #2.. since it was in a none heated enclosed car garge to start with.. and the only difference would be no walls on the patio, just a roof. opions and suggestions welcome.
 
So you have a home theater in an uninsulated garage?
Can you post a picture of the garage?
Maybe you could put a smaller brute trash can in a bigger container and then use spray foam to insulate it. The difference between a Yeti and a cheap cooler is insulation and a really good lid.
 
Can't you just leave it in the theater garage, paint it in your Tennessee "Vols" colors, and throw some other college "spirit" paraphernalia around it?

I like the need for clarifying whether a space is a cars garage vs a junk storage garage vs a home theater garage :)

It's been mentioned but why not just keep the mixing station in the garage?

Maybe a slimmer container? Hide it behind the TV?
 
Take some pics of the garage and we can give you some more ideas.
