Would like to put in small hottub. It has a screen door (no glass) to backyard. Large windows that open wide. Would rather not heat the room, is this okay? Floor is level but will put a drain. Paint exposed brick and wood with mildew resistant paint. Thick concrete as flooring. Ceiling is a bit low so not sure if this is a problem! Will put in a dehumidifier for moisture. Lots of airflow possible due to screen door and big open windows so don’t think I need a fan/vent. Any thoughts ?? Thank you so much!!

But a large room would require it to be sized by an engineer for perfect performance.Robhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15664794311530054422noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7266472297913981560.post-84718770967501180272018-11-10T10:37:30.167-05:002018-11-10T10:37:30.167-05:00i need to exhaust a spa room, what type of fan is ...i need to exhaust a spa room, what type of fan is best,14" duct, with motor on roof, duct in placeAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12236986657753690106noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7266472297913981560.post-30068326764436282262017-07-25T05:16:29.694-04:002017-07-25T05:16:29.694-04:00Good posting and very nice article, and this site ...Good posting and very nice article, and this site give a interesting information..thanks for sharing. <a href="https://www.loveselfcatering.co.uk/lodges-with-hot-tubs/" rel="nofollow">Lodges with Hot Tubs</a>Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7266472297913981560.post-37482743575336111642017-04-14T20:03:11.749-04:002017-04-14T20:03:11.749-04:00I'm glad I found t web site, I couldn't fi...I'm glad I found t web site, I couldn't find any knowledge on this m prior to.Also operate a site and if you are ever interested in doing some visitor writing for me if possible feel free to let me know, im always look for people to check out my web site.<br /><b><a href="http://www.hottubsportal.com" rel="nofollow">Hot tubs portal</a></b> Harishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05056305160259118509noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7266472297913981560.post-3362762976540458532014-10-16T15:51:49.112-04:002014-10-16T15:51:49.112-04:00You should install a humidistat exhaust fan in the...You should install a humidistat exhaust fan in the area of the hot tub, this will automatically turn on when there is an excessive amount of humidity in the room. Humidity can be really hard on entertainment equipment especially in a well insulated and sealed room. You should also think about installing a couple of ceiling fans to help move the humid air around from off the ceiling and down toward the exhaust fan.Robhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15664794311530054422noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7266472297913981560.post-77387102159028892262014-10-13T15:45:41.082-04:002014-10-13T15:45:41.082-04:00Hi Rob, I enjoyed read this article you posted mai...Hi Rob, I enjoyed read this article you posted mainly because we are doing this type of project and I had some questions. We live in SE Nebraska with R-value of 38+. We added onto the back of our garage where our deck use to be the space is approx. 14'x28' we poured a solid concrete floor 6" thick with a drain as you subject since we do have a 2/3 person hot tub spa already that will be going into this space. My question is how much insulation should we place above in the new roof which will be in closed later with seald knotty pine for a rustic look. There will be 80-90% windows on the 2 new walls. He existing walls one is the back of the garage with clap board sidng and the other 28' long is the actual brick of the house. The clap board we wanted to enclose in the treated pine like the ceiling. The hottub will be at the far end it is 5'x7. And the other half of this space will have seating and entertainment system. Any other concerns on insulating and condensation ect. Thank you<br />Sheila Westbrook Sweetbluhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06475252438508265114noreply@blogger.com
