But you have a toilet and sink, Those have drains.? Do you have any sort of water heater for your sink?I didn't put any drains in my new shop. Wanted my floor to be flat, and it is. The concrete guys were awesome. BUT, I don't plan on working on anything in my shop that would require a drain. I do have an attached garage to my house with a heated floor and if I need to work on a vehicle I do it over there, not in my shop.
If you are putting a bathroom in your new shop, which I highly recommend BTW, the boiler condensate can be plumbed over to the sink drain. My mini-split drain goes outside, since you should not be producing any moisture when it is below freezing so that should not be an issue.
Speaking of bathrooms, I am thankful every day that I put one in my new shop. Not having to walk over to the house to use the restroom is really nice along with being able to clean up my hands before going to the house is super cool.
I thought we were referencing floor drains. Yes, I do have a restroom in my shop with a drain to the septic system. I want to say that my excavator charged me $800 to run the sewer line to the shop along with a fresh water line from inside the house to the shop. I think that the shop is about 100ft from the house. The water line was run before the basement in the house was poured, so it goes under the footings and out. Probably 160+ft of water line.But you have a toilet and sink, Those have drains.?

I have a Stiebel Eltron electric tankless water heater under the sink. I don't remember the KW rating but I had to have a 40amp circuit to it. It works "ok" but barely. I had to turn the flow rate down to get hot water. Works fine for washing hands but I wouldn't want to fill a 5 gallon pail with it.
