    High Humidity
    came back from class today and i noticed condensation on the tub. The humidity is up to 82%, i checked inside and everything is damp. This is my first time using a tub, i drilled 14 1/8 inch holes front and back. Should i drill more holes, or drill the 1/8inch holes out to 1/4 inch?

    Just add holes until there won't be any condensation. But be careful. Remember to start with fewer holes. It's easier to add holes than take away. You can always add more holes if needed later.

    I would drill 1/4 holes. 1/8 are not as efficient at the end of the day. Yes wipe away the condensation. Remember the temperature difference will also effect the condensation. Often cool rooms generate more condensation.
