Solving High Humidity Issue


Below are another high humidity issue faced with my blog reader. He is very kind to share his problem in my blog.

He has a 4-storeys standalone BH with 11 nest marking after only 1 month plus. That is very good to me. But all his nest marking only at the top floor. He has a 16x20x2 feet pond at the ground floor. He suspect the pond causes high humidity (>90%) and birds do not like to stay at the lower floor.
He opened about 50% of the VH and drained the pool, but the humidity still > 90%. After seeing my other blog reader use the ventilator to remove the access humidity and reduce temperature, he decided to try using the ventilator.
He used 2 ventilators which are placed slightly above the pond. The incoming air is from outside the BH, go through the VH, then follow the long PVC tube and finally flow to the pond. After installed the ventilator, the humidity level now is around 85% to 88%. Now more birds are coming. Hope he is doing well.
If you have any great idea, you are welcome to share in my blog. If my other blog reader never share the idea of ventilator, he would never thought of using the ventilator to solve his problem. The more we give, the more we get.

  1. The ventilators are meant for extracting the air from the BH or providing fresh air to the BH ?
    If they are meant for extraction, I would have thought that they should be placed at high level to extract out the hot air.
