Dehumidifier in wooden structure

[dobson156]

Hi, I've got a large workshop which is a single skin wood construction built on top of a concrete slab with a corrugated roof.

The building is warm and relatively dry but a lot of a metal tools do build up rust pretty quick.

The wooden structure is by no means well sealed from the outdoors. If I turn the lights on and go out at night then there is a lot of light leaking out from here, there and everywhere.

Obviously when time allows going and sealing these gaps up is going to be a good thing to do. However in the meantime, would I be totally wasting my time running a dehumidifier in there?

Waste of time and money.

Try desiccant packs.
