actually we've never really had issues with humidity due to the greenhouse. regardless, my family has instructions to keep my door and windows open, and the fan is running basically 24/7 (although i think i turned it off when i got out of the shower this morning, since it was a bit chilly).

My tank is at about 80-81 every day all day even Saturday when it was 29C out side. Well good thing it is in the basement.
I never really thought about water in the air, and the problems that may ensure with the house, oh well I guess I need to set up a fan!

I'm losing about 2 gallons a day, and I have serious problems with moisture in my house. If you guys are losing 5g a day and don't have air exchange units in your house, you'll probably have problems too. I have to buy a attic unit to aerate my whole house!!

I am loosing 3 gal/day and have no moisture problems. I have a fan hooked up to a humidistat so it maintains my humidity at about 48%

yup just had the carpets done two weeks ago and moved all the stuff out of the front room. the fan you have is probably a commen bathroom fan rated for 40 cu^ft per min. depending on the duct work they only put out 20cu^ft/min or less. I paied big bucks during the power smart for this one and it is tested at 120 cu^ft/min installed. so the fan you have makes a big difference. If I were you and you could afford one of thoes turbine ones that sit in the attic. I would get that and plumb it into the roof of your hall and hook it to a humidistat that is in the dinning room. they kick out about 260 cu^ft/min and are pretty quiet also.

Always remember though, "what goes out, has to come back in". Thats why an air exchanger works well. If you just exhaust, how does the replacment air come in.
Of course I suppose in Victoria, you can leave a window or something open.
