Green House up, question about humidification.
    #5568594 - 04/28/06 09:29 PM (17 years, 9 months ago)

I bought a cool moisture humidifier that works by absorbing water through a special filter and a large fan pulls the wet air off it and into the area. I have it setup inside my green house 1" above the floor on a crate self. There is a 1/2" space between my floor and green house cover, so air is able to move in. So my question is is it necessary to attach a hose and put the humidifier outside the green hose? Running on low for 2 hours puts the humidity at about 90% and it stays off for 1 hour and drops to 80%. I think with the gap between the green house and floor the fan on the humidifier can suck up enough fresh air running 2 hours at a time out of 3.

Most people use hoses on centrifugal humidifiers.

It sounds like you have a wick humidifier, but if it works then it works. You'll still need to find a source of FAE, unless you open your greenhouse on a fairly regular basis OR the gap at the bottom is substantial enough.

Well my humidity is up at 90% inside while outside it's 36%. The fan on the humidifier is large 20 cm and has good output I would say it pushes 40cfm so for a small green house I think that should be enough for the old air to be pushed out several times being replaced with fresh air from gap at the bottom. Also the filter is specially treated to protect against mold and bacteria to grow. Pics will be posted tomorrow of my total grow under way check it out.
