You could always pick up two less expensive/lower capacity smaller
cooling-only units and run them in parallel, and then re-start the
discussion of the best way to heat the shop/garage. Depending on how
cold winter gets where you are, you may want to pull the unit out and
seal the hole during the cold season.

minimum, to cool my 23x33x11 garage. Consumer Reports had a report on just
such units but the largest was 12000BTU. Their winner was LG but since I
require a larger unit I don't know if their brand recommendation still
applies.
