Question about water pooling on your monotub...
    #27095837 - 12/18/20 01:20 PM (3 years, 1 month ago)

How bad exactly is this? Is a little pooling okay? How do you guys go about getting rid of the pooled water, paper towels?

Thanks!

Water is water. :shrug: but the pooling is not ideal. I would guess that bacteria could be an issue with pooling but I've never looked that much into it.

I use paper towels but also try to dial in more FAE by removing some micropore tape.

I'm convinced my last tub contamed because of pooling. If you're fully colonized then don't be afraid to dab it lightly with a paper towel.

Also like blinkfan said try to increase the amount of air exchange.
