container condensation

[manicman]

Hi all,
I've just started to rent a shipping container for my workshop, however I've been informed by someone else that they suffer from a lot of condensation dripping from the roof in winter.... I'm hazarding a guess that it might just be short of air movement??
Has anyone else had this or can they offer any suggestions as I really dont want my kit getting dripped on over the winter months?

Cheers

Ian

i rent a container as a storage unit ,they are foam sprayed on ceilings , no condensation problems .
would be quite expensive as as yrs is rented unless the landlord wants to fork out

Good ventilation would help ...

As you say ventilation or a dehumidifier

You'll have a devil of a time keeping a metal container damp free. Once had an Anderson shelter. Loved that thing, but not for love nor money could I get rid of the damp in it, hence ended up getting shut of it. Bugs me to this day that I had to get shut of it, but it was neither use nor ornament being as damp as it was.

Don't know which is worse. The fact that I can understand that perfectly well, or the fact that I'm thinking some of their dialect spelling is a bit iffy. Quite a decent QE to Tyke interpretation though.

That's one term we used to hear cartloads of times as kids. Get anywhere within spitting distance of the kerb, and mum was telling one to keep away from it. They didn't like us lakin about near the road.
