Dehumidifier December 16, 2009, 04:24:44 pm Yahoo Message Number: 108587As workampers we spend several months backed up to a mountain stream with attendant humidity and mildew. Is there a dehumidifier that fits in the rear cargo bay of a 30 ft. 99 LD that can keep that area and our IB rear bedroom dry?

It is keeping it dry, running on low, 24/7 (it's a 12 volt fan).Hope this helps -Helen

In my estimation the best thing for humidity and mildew is fresh moving air and to provide that I'd use a fan, probably and Endless Breeze by Fantastic Fan.

Ah yes, the Blue Ridge, I've driven it several times, all north to south. Usually starting at Front Royal, VA. Camped a couple of places along the way, of which I can't remember the names. Camped at Cherokee. Interesting town that! Guess I missed Moonshine Creek though.Steve S. Lazy Bones & Jiggs

Re: Dehumidifier Reply #6 – December 17, 2009, 08:01:08 pm Yahoo Message Number: 108620We also have humidity problems with our house boat. We use the "No Damp Dehumidifier" it works great all winter to keep the boat interior dry. It prevents condensation and mildew. Cost about $8. We have found the following products at West Marine on-line catalog. Different other products for boats range from $8 to $400. http://ecatalog.westmarine.com/full.asp?page=363 David and Verna 2004 26.5 MB (Spokane)__

Re: Dehumidifier Reply #8 – December 18, 2009, 07:43:14 am Yahoo Message Number: 108622Here in the woods of the Pacific NW I need a serious dehumidifier. I tried buying the smaller, 35 pint Sears energystar model but it doesn't work in colder weather (40 degrees) so I stick with the 50 pint model. It's heavy and not small but it seriously does the job - as you'll see when you go to empty the water bin. Mold likes to grow up here - especially in the warm damp environment of a heated trailer.Francine
