(3 years this November) Powell River climate is no different than Vancouver. Go for it, I'm sure you'll be happy with it.

Now I like lances ideas of an insulated box as opposed to a whole shed .... Alot cheaper , doesn't take up land or require anything and like lance said you. Can have it right on your deck

Hummmmm maybe I'll go that route you all got me thinking now lol

well i was going to put the shed is all concrete. So thats all there. I was thinking the small box idea but then I want my tall skimmer in it, and my reactors and this and that and this, etc.

And the best part is no worries with spills etc. Just hose it away down the deck drain.

its all mine, muhahaha

actually just talked to my carpentry buddy and i told him what i want to use the shed for and he said its probably easier to just make a big box. so its going to be something like 4 wide, 7 long 5 high. so a short person could fit in it but I would just reach in and do what I need to
