Keep digging around and you'll find that the Bev Air is one of the most highly recommended units if the purchase price is not a priority. It comes from the mfg with all the 'upgrades' most people make to the more economically priced units in their quest for the perfect pour. The fact that you can get this fairly new unit for the same price as one of the lesser priced units makes it a 'no brainer' for me. As for keeping it in the garage, you'll want to clean the coils every 2-3 months depending on how dusty or how many critters try to nest in there. Doing it is pretty straight forward. Remove two bolts from the bottom of the cover and loosen two screws at the top and it slides right off. I find that blasting it with compressed air works great. It's a little messier than using a vacuum, but it reaches more places.
