Carcoon Or Similar

I had some water coming in through a breeze block wall at the far end.. .... Bizarre as outside the wall is sealed and partly undercover and very annoying as it then ran across the area I normally work in.



I had lots of elaborate plans to fix but then wondered if it was the flow of water coming off another roof and onto the end of mine... And then running atwix the wall.....a 500mm section of scrap iron gutter later and tis fixed woohoo.



The normal compressor type dehumidifier started to struggle with the inside temp close to 10°.... So I bought a second desiccated dehydrogenator and that has whooped the outside tent humidity down to 60% in a few weeks without any bother. Also by placing it behind and slightly lower than the compressor dehumidifier, it stops that from freezing up and provides a fan and slight warmed air....perfick.



60-65% outside tent

50-55% inside tent

No lakes of water



Jobs a carrot.



One weirdity is that the inside tent temp is always a degree or two lower than the outside tent temp!! Tent is insulated with membrane, matting and then floor boards .... The dehydrogenator kicks out a little heat so I'm not sure how come it is colder... hmm
