Water pooling in monotub, problem?
    #8698807 - 07/29/08 06:18 PM (16 years, 5 months ago)

Like the title says it, the lining of the monotub is a garbage bag, with the edges rolled over so when the condensation runs down the edge it isn't running onto my bulk. I opened it up yesterday and tilted it onto one corner and noticed a substantial puddle forming. I was wondering if it would in anyway inhibit the bulk from doing its thing.

Sorry for those of you who have been running across my threads in attempt to get this tub to pin. I am still battling the temps, as I was able to get them down to 78 for a good 8 hours with the wet towel trick, but wet towels = damp smelly room. So that being said I am going to place a 2 frozen two liter in front of the fan that oscillates in the same room. Hopefully that does something but any suggestions on how to bring temps in the tub down gets 5 shroomies.

the water pooling has never been an issue for me.  but if you want to you could drill/melt a couple holes in the corners of one side of your monotub and tilt the tub up a little like on a magazine and lay a couple paper towels under those holes and change them out every couple of days.

go down the shop and buy a portable evaporative cooler should set up back $70 or so and drops the temps down with out smelling up the room,

what they virtually are is a portable air con that you fill up with a couple of Lt's of water

Figured as much, but I read in a different thread that they diagnosed his problem as water pooling. It didn't say whether it was on the actual bulk itself, or like mine running under the bag.

Thanks fellas.

I have heard of a few brave souls somehow incorporating dry ice in the mix for this. A search may bring something up.

I have yet to tub so I wouldn't know where to start.

Good Luck though and let us all know how it goes.

Now that'd be something to read up about, PM me if you ever find it. Being a tub user, I still dont even know where it would be used.

My room temps are in the mid 80s the entire summer. I was able to find a window mounted AC for $70 on Ebay (new @ $114) that keeps the temp within 1 F of whatever you set it at... might be your best bet (economically and convenience wise) over dry ice etc. unless this is a one time project and/or if you don't have a suitable window to mount it on in your room.
