Hi. I built a grow room in my pole barn. The room is good. The other half of the pole barn is full of moisture. What do I do? Put more insulation on the grow room? It’s cold here so the moisture is freezing now.
Help please
Use an exhaust fan and exhaust it outside
You can run fans also
If it’s freezing there you’re gonna need heat, which will help to reduce condensation…
…then if you’re gonna heat the room, you might as well have it well insulated
works for me
peace

Can you set up an exhaust lung room /tent just outside of the grow room where you remove the moisture befor you finally exhaust it inside barn or out : )
It’s complicated but learn dew point variations…
Hi. The Grow room is heated and insulated. It’s the other unused half of building just dripping condensation at night.
I have half heated. Sure can’t afford to heat a uninsulated area. Also have several fans running. Maybe a leak in the insulation creating some heat in the side not insulated?
Try putting a small wall up, in the attick beside the insulated side of the attic? Maybe if the new wall is insulated, and vapor barrier-ed, it will stop it from happening? Apologies for my crude photoshop skills haha…But, here is what I suggest :
I too am battling humidity right now…Good luck with the fight sir…
Edit: I would insulate everything aove your room anyways…I had a room like that, and when it snowed, there was always a big patch of snow missing from the roof… Such a heat score, when it was against the law…
