After the roads dry off and the cold temps I was as soon as possible. It is nice to have a insulated garage with a floor drain
I concur.
BTW, I only took this picture because I had never seen my wife hand wash her car, let alone when it was -24 degrees with the wind chill. I was sweating by the time I was done with my car 
Nice garage 
. Ohh... and your wife is lovely as well 
I like the floor you have, is that the roll-on epoxy stuff? Can I ask where your floor drains flow into? Did you have to get the separate filtering system installed before it sends the water to the city sewer system?
Thanks Snowman.
The floor drains flow into the City's sanitary sewer. The City wasn't very keen on the idea at first so we installed a sump/catch basin in each of the 3 drains. It works just like the City's catch basins - all the silt, sand, etc. is caught about 1'-2' down. It requires maintenance once a year - raise the lid, vaccuum out, send to the dump where it can be aerated and used as cover. If it is not maintained it will fill up and everything will go down the drain and eventually plug our pipes.
The floor is heated by hot water pipes that run in the concrete. On top of the concrete is a mix of flexs that were blown (the guy basically had a glorified leaf blower) onto the epoxy. The grip is pretty incredible and the floor feels warm to the touch. The garage floor is also sloped a couple inches under each car towards the catch basins.
The garage has hot/cold soft water, a dehumidifier, thermostat (you can see on the wall next to the Jetta), insulation, tile splash guards and a Bose Wave sounds system with iPod dock. The garage door rails were powder-coated and raised to the roof in order to accomodate lifts.
Needless to say, I no longer wash the car at my own house or drivethrus.
