Humid Room C511

Humid Room C511

(OP)
Working on a large project and keep adding tanks and tanks.  I'm looking to set up a humid room.  I'd like to do it with a temp building.  Someone out there has gone through this and wants to help me out, I know it!  I wonder what methods didn't work and which ones did - both for humidity and temperature.  And are you controlling temp before the water goes in to the room or once it's in the room?   

RE: Humid Room C511

I know there are previous threads on this issue.
To help out the discussion,
Where is this to be located?
What climate (temperature ranges & relative humidity) are you anticipating?

RE: Humid Room C511

Have done several of these over the years.  Long/narrow is better than square.  Make sure you can control the temperature...that's more difficult than controlling the moisture.  A few degrees either way on the temperature control will significantly affect the curing process.

This is in the southeast - so 100 in summer and 20 in winter.
I imagined that the temperature would be a major challenge.  That's why I wondered how others were doing this.  Are they controlling the temp of the water before it goes in to help?  Or using any good hvac?
