So… for those of you with chest freezers with digital temp control, how do you go about taking care of humidity in there? I have a couple small EvaDry “passive” dehumidifiers w/ the renewable silica, but i was wondering if there’s another way? a “plug in” type, perhaps?
I just built a keezer, out of a 2005 chest freezer and the runner seal doesn’t hold well because the hinges don’t line up to accomodate the new collar where the taps go. so i’m trying to think of my options.
as far as i can tell, they are:
build a custom hinge, and maybe add rubber seal to the top of the 2x4 of the collar, to complement the top of the chest freezer lid
use an “active” (plug in type) dehumidifier, with the power cord running out of the freezer, and figure out how to seal the area where the cord comes out of the freezer
buy a shitload of small evaDrys. inefficient , but an option, i suppose.
I don’t have a keezer but I do know that dehumidifiers produce heat. The air would need to be circulated out of the keezer through the dehumidifier and the dry air back into the keezer. Might take too much duct work for optimal operation of a dehumidifier.
I just live with it and mop it out every once in awhile. Not a big deal and kinda comes with the territory unless you’re making tremendous amounts of water. When I change kegs I grab a wad of paper towels and sop up the water. I also hit it with disinfecting wipes every now and again.
Cheers!
I have a 10.2 cu ft and just wipe it up with a towel
once in a while and spray a little bleach/ water solution to kill anything that may be thinking about sprouting. I was going to try some dehumidification but it just didn’t seem to be a huge problem.
I use 50 Pint Dehumidifier which ensures health with pleasant Atmosphere. This Best Dehumidifier removes damp, mold and moisture from your office, room or even in your bathroom.
I am using 70 pint dehumidifier which is really helpful for in my atmosphere.I use this dehumidifier in my basement which is really good place for dehumidifiers placement.
