If you are not covering the entire height of the wall, draw a horizontal line along the wall where you want the fabric to stop. Measure from the ceiling down to create this line. e.g. I put my fabric behind board and batten trim with the fabric about 2/3rds of the way up the wa...
In a properly vented attic, air circulates from lower vents -- usually located in the roof soffits -- to higher ones in the roof decking, roof ridge or gables. When this ventilation is insufficient, warm, moist air stagnates, creating the ideal conditions for mold growth on surfaces that ...
Chimp Haven provides fans, air vents, and covered areas for the chimpanzees, providing shade and potentially cooler inside locations. In comparison, low temperatures may be in the 30s (F) (−1.11C) between the months of October and December (https://www.wunderground.com/weather/us/la/...
Ventilation:You exhale moisture as you sleep and a tent needs ways to deal with that. That's why features like mesh windows or panels and adjustable rainfly vents are important: They let you increase airflow to prevent condensation buildup inside. Being able to roll up rainfly doors or pan...
