We've just had a couple of days of heavy rain and just the wrong kind of cool to go with it - dropped below the dew point and I'm back in damage control mode in the smithy and in my woodshop - first time in 10 years that my jointer decided to flash over with rust :-(
So I'm thinking it's time to figure out a bit of heat for the shops, just to keep above the dew point.
My current thought is to use a propane through-wall unit in the smithy. The woodshop is harder, but I think I can clear a space on the one wall that would be eligible for such a heater. Running propane there doesn't look too challenging, probably 20' of line from the tee the kitchen stove is on.
So the real question: does any know of control systems for these that can manage a dew-point/humidity-based "thermostat"?
