Project man-cave and question about dehumidifiers

[Karl V]

Evening all.

It is with a saddened heart that I must declare project man-cave officially completed.

Unfortunately, the Nomad had to be evicted to the driveway for 3 nights while the garage floor was being tiled. It has been very damp recently, but.... The Meaco DD8L Zambezi dehumidifier has been an inspired investment.

The Nomad had a quick towel down before being wheeled back into the garage - still damp / wet in many areas.

Within 3 hours of dehumidifier treatment, the car is almost completely dry.

Thanks for all the advice on this thread!

Like the mounting arrangement!

I too will be refurbishing my man cave and wondered whether I needed to replace by two meacos but looks like I don't have too!

I can see a drip on the floor - oh sorry, that's your incontinence bag leaking

So today I discovered that if you hoon it up through the snow and park up in the garage, puddles of water appear on the garage floor.

The dehumidifier will have its work cut out tonight.

That is all...

I love reading this stuff... all gives me some great ideas. I like the wine/beer rack btw... so might pinch that idea too.

This is as far as I (me... ha, no, the builders) have got so far... since the temps dropped, it's now more an ice skating ring, so haven't seen any progress since mid Decemeber... Atom is away at boarding school (poor thing), but at least with the cold and icey roads I miss it a little less. Bikes too, stashed away and unrideable.

The wine rack is just a piece of left over end panel from the kitchen re-fit a year ago, with some strategically placed holes.

The wife said to me once: 'can you move the wine into the garage? I'm trying to cut down.'

I'm a good husband...
