Opened bathroom vent and cracked open a couple windows last night and also did the boiling water.  In addition, I did lower the furnace thermostat considerably so furnace would not run a lot.  It was cold but humidity inside trailer was improved tremendously.  Felt a lot better this morning compared to yesterday morning.  Appreciate everyone’s input and help!]]> Sat, 21 Apr 2018 08:31:15 +0000 http://www.rpod-owners.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=11440&PID=107815#107815 http://www.rpod-owners.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=11440&PID=107794#107794 Author: furpod

I am sorry.. I don't recall an owner needing to RAISE humidity levels.. I just assumed a typo.. 

Yeah, I would go with an ultrasonic humidifier as needed. This figuring you have elec. hook ups. If not, I suppose a damp towel and reservoir placed in front of the heater out put could help..

If you have electricity, you could carry a small ultrasonic humidifier along and run that. I'm familiar with the low as single-digit humidity of Arizona having spent 7 years at Fort Huachuca. If you don't have electricity, just having a pan of water on the stove (heat, then turn off) will provide some humidity. You could put a pan of water near the heater and let the furnace's airflow help add humidity if you can put it where it won't be tripped over.

I am out west also, 2 hours NW of Phoenix.  My problem is LOW humidity in rpod at night when running the furnace.  Outside hummidity is in low 30%.  I will try cracking open bathroom vent and a couple windows.  Thanks!]]> Fri, 20 Apr 2018 18:32:00 +0000 http://www.rpod-owners.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=11440&PID=107782#107782 http://www.rpod-owners.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=11440&PID=107776#107776 Author: jato

+1 to furpod.  We learned the hard way years ago about camping in the Rockies with temps in the mid to upper 30's and not opening any windows.  Walls were soaked with humidity as well as the windows, even our bed was damp from the water running down the walls.  Since then, do as furpod advises, open FF 1/4" and we will open 1 or 2 windows diagonally opposite each other a smidge; took care of the problem.]]> Fri, 20 Apr 2018 16:16:25 +0000 http://www.rpod-owners.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=11440&PID=107776#107776 http://www.rpod-owners.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=11440&PID=107754#107754 Author: furpod

Vent. Crack the FF a 1/4 inch, and a window by a hair..

We always leave the roof vent in the head open a little so cold air can leak in.  Never had a problem with too much steam building up.  But then out west, we don't have the humidity some of you have.  ....maybe a giant bag of silica gel?? ]]> Fri, 20 Apr 2018 09:33:47 +0000 http://www.rpod-owners.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=11440&PID=107746#107746 http://www.rpod-owners.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=11440&PID=107741#107741 Author: Podizzi

Any solutions to low hummidity in TT while camping in cold weather and running furnace at night?  No electricity connection and generator use ends at 10:00 pm.  Thoughts appreciated.]]> Fri, 20 Apr 2018 09:16:10 +0000 http://www.rpod-owners.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=11440&PID=107741#107741
