Humidity problem.

I have a sealed room with co2. I tried venting but it can't keep humidity low enough plus it sucks co2 out and fights my temperatures.

QUESTION*****
Who makes an energy efficient, reliable dehumidifier that doesn't put off a ton of heat?
or that the heat can be vented??
Thanks!

I had the same problem. I got a co2 meter/controller and found that to keep my garden humidity down enough not to mold, the co2 was all being vented. So, I gave up on co2. I live in a high mold area and can't take the chances with a burner and I'm just not able to do it any other way. I hope you find a solution that I didn't find.

There is this little bag set up called Damp Rid, this blew my f-in mind. It hangs from anything or on your wall and keeps humidity down by 20-30% consistently! My flower room is about 100sqft and keeps it in check! Check it out!!

+Rep...looks legit

I'll check it out. I just can't run another 800 watts sucking water out of the air.

I just hung all 3 and will have an update tomorrow. If they last and can hold down the humidity 10-15%, I'll be tickled shitless!

Check their website too...they have a plastic tub you can order that is supposed to last 6 months for 250 sq ft...here is the link http://www.damprid.com/indexf671.html

wow awesome let me know how this works. i use a dehumidifier and it just kills electricity bill. draws 8 amps.

If you want to be really cheap take some drywall, cut it into 1/2" cubes, put it in the oven for an hour at 200ºC. Get a big heap and put them in your room. They're a powerful desiccant. Put in a fresh batch when humidity starts to rise. Be warned: you need a lot.

Sounds like way too much work...a sheet of drywall costs almost as much as the damprid

This sounds like a huge mess!

I just picked up two of the big tubs that supposedly last 6 months...$10 each from Home Depot
