Rack Issues

[Neal]

Okay so it may just be me, but does anybody else notice temperature differences between the slots in the rack, or maybe I have fault crap which wouldn't surprise me knowing my luck.

I have a 5 tub system, the top two are about a degree cooler then the middle and the bottom one under the middle is about 3 degrees warmer.

That happens because heat escapes the top and there is no heat rising from underneath the bottom. Some people insulate on top and underneath to retain more heat. Is this open air or closed off?

one thing that helped me get the difference in my temps closer is running a fan that blows air from floor level to the ceiling. the good thing is, if you want to try this and have a fan. it won't cost nothing. good luck don

How did you install the fan to your rack?

Yup same issue with my 5 tub rack. Also the humidity varies 2-4% between the top and bottom tubs.

I don't have fan but I'd be curious about putting one in. I have an enclosed rack and I wouldn't have the slightest idea how to insulate it anymore then what it is.

What kind of rack? I do not have this problem on any of my racks.

When I built my first rack the temps were off a few degrees only on the bottom and top tubs. I added insulation on the top and bottom then hid it with a kickplate. Never had a problem since and built it into all my racks since.
