Condensation in hangar
My uninsulated, unheated, drafty hangar would do this with regularity. My
insulated, heated, tight as a drum hangar never does it. I think the key is
keeping the insides warm which keeps the humidity down. When the warm moist
air does make an appearance it seems the low humidity in the hangar is able
to absorb the added moisture without condensing.

After a snow here in the NW, we often get the "pineapple Express," warm
moist air from Hawaii.
This causes a huge amount of water to condense in my hangar. The floor
will have 1/8 inch of water on it. This has only happened once in 5 years.
But today I bought a couple of big fans and plan to cut holes in the
hangar door and continuously vent with the fans.
Do you think I should blow air in, or out. Or should one be in and the
other out. Or is this just a dumb idea and something else would work much
better. The builder of the hangar did not consider condensation and there
are no roof vents.
