Im gonna be "that guy".. Im an electrician/ Electrical Engineer..
You got the wrong wire man.. you need 10-3 Romex for a 240v circuit, assuming you you are only going up to a 30A circuit breaker (looks like a 30 in the pic).
10-2 is only good for 120v. Unless you plan to use the white wire as your L2 and use the ground as your neutral.. (wouldn't recommend that)
Post pics once its done! Been thinking about putting in a AC/ Heater in my garage too

So far, I like it.. It makes pretty good heat for its size. However, it's obviously going to be less effective in a non insulated space, so now my next project is to close in the rafters and add insulation. My first step was to add a folding attic ladder since I want to maintain easy access for storage.
