I'd like to think that if this was such a great idea, we'd have dehumidifier/humidifier combo devices marketed to home-growers by now.
I used to tank all my condensation & de humidifier water & re use it in humidifiers & feed because it's pure water but my humidifiers slimed up quickly because there was no chlorine in that water. Fighting waterborne molds for a while I let it go & stuck to tap.ive since put a tote bin in the ground & drain all condensation to that & use it for outdoor irrigation
Maybe boil the dehu water first to kill any possible mold spores and bactiria then use it in the humidifier..I knew there had to be a catch, thank you!
Or add a pinch of pool shockMaybe boil the dehu water first to kill any possible mold spores and bactiria then use it in the humidifier..
Just a thought..
That too.. im poor so i instantly think of quik cheap or easy solutions... lmao..Or add a pinch of pool shock
Uv light? Would that work?Or add a pinch of pool shock
Yeah, that was the key to holding ro water & a chiller. I just put 2 on an 850 galUv light? Would that work?
I thought i seen them used in something.. The foggers used in mushroom cultivating.. your water chiller comment reminded me about that..Yeah, that was the key to holding ro water & a chiller. I just put 2 on an 850 gal
I almost have to use my mini split's condensate in my swamp cooler. The well water is too hard, and clogs up the honeycomb media within a year or 2. I've had no problems with mold in the rez of the swamp cooler, but I do add a dash of Physan 20, and hit the water with a UVC light every now and then.
Gotta Love physan 20. that & pool shock are the ultimate sanitizers !Thank you @DoubleAtotheRON i always value your insight when it comes to keeping things clean!
