Back in August, I had an 18' x 14' Sectional Garage erected.
Once October arrived & temperatures dropped, inside became like a rain forest. Soggy boxes, mould growing, tools rusting, etc.
Seems the stuff stored, holds daytime heat & once the tin roof gets colder, MEGA Condensation occurs.
At the moment I am NOT using any heating, as that would make it worse.
Despite the supplier advising me to leave the ends of the roof sheets open to provide a through draught, still like a Scenic with blocked scuttle drains
Some suggested a De-Humidifier, not at £20 / week for electricity.
Thought I'd try a cheaper cure:- Found an old Oven Fan (0.050 amps) & a tumble drier vent, the one with flaps that shut when unused.
Been on for a week now, sucking air from the rafters.
So far much drier.
Anyone else have other ideas? Could insulate the roof, but the light from the clear sheets is invaluable.
