Narrowboat Life: Condensation & Damp?

[@blue.valentine0133]

Without this video I will never get idea how to do this. Thank you 🤭

[@soriyaskitchen]

I just used your video to set up my Kilrock moisture trap as the instructions on the packaging wasn’t too clear. Thanks :)

[@robertgebruers9519]

Thanks for showing how to use the Kilrock product! I bought one of them today and the directions for use on the packet are terrible! I’m no idiot, but they do not take into account the second packet of crystals when describing things which made it really confusing. You showed exactly how to do it 👏 Thank you!

[@marlenefaircloth4350]

Yes needed a bit of clarity on what to do with it but you were more than clear cheers dears

[@markburdett2481]

Thanks very much for that!!You explained it better than the side of the box!

[@SortOfInteresting]

+Mark Burdett Haha, thanks for tuning in! Glad you found something useful in my wittering on!!

[@01572]

Also came here because the instructions are useless. thanks!

[@funnyfiveminutes]

I got those flakes all over the place trying to fill the top part separately 🫣

[@dax977]

Just bought this and your instructions are spot on mate, good man.

[@NickiBrand2757]

Thanks! For some reason manufacturers of these products like to keep us puzzling re the instructions! I came here after buying the Clear Air ones from B&M so appreciate the step by step demo.

[@lauren6889]

Thanķs, couldn't make head or tail of the box instructions. I lived on Narrowboat Lindisfarne as a young girl at Foxton and around about.

[@parmorama]

Silica gel cat litter works really well too, and you can buy it cheap from places like B&M . You can also re-use the silica gel by heating it up in a pan until it change’s back to its original colour.

[@weeewchaweeewcha]

Thank you for your help 👍🏽

[@emmalouise8426]

Thanks for that I had to look how to do this seeing I done it the other way around and spilt them 😂😂

[@margondine]

I came on here as I couldn't believe the mess I made filling it. Instructions on box next to useless!

[@tobitoes1052]

Love seeing the reflection of the water on the ceiling in this one!

[@rayranger8249]

I bought one of these in wilko (2.50) . I'm a engineer and I could not work out how to bloody fill it. Thanks to this vid I've done it. Btw if you wake up in the morning and there is no condensation it means your dead 🤔

[@deemac1094]

😅

[@NickiBrand2757]

Good vampire test, they should market these round Halloween.

[@LynSmithmusic]

So grateful, thanks so much (beautiful boat). Bought one of the moisture traps and did not have a clue how to use it. You made it simple for me and saved me time today. Appreciate you! L

[@nailakusar4180]

I love the way you demonstrated this. Thanks 😊

[@angelclark9755]

Wish I'd have watched this before I opened mine 😂 was a right mess thank you for this video

[@AllanPenafiel]

It's not a super duper scientific approach but it's what common people need to know. Good video!

[@kevanparker908]

Take care with those moisture traps (dehumidifiers) The liquid which you end up with is corrosive and if it leaks onto furnishings or decorative surfaces it will damage them. The ones with the spare refill are more likely to spill!

[@VanderlyndenJengold]

@goinghomesomeday1 unfortunately it will kill your soil and stick around for a long time and spread. Not a good idea to use it for weeds.

[@davidherbert-saez1949]

Great stuff, no instructions. I was looking at this contraption like a chimp. 😀😀

[@SortOfInteresting]

Haha it’s a weird thing that after all these years this has been one of my most viewed videos over the last few weeks!

[@HD-cz9hq]

This comment section is so wholesome. Thanks for all the tips

[@empathicchristian]

Time to change the battery in the smoke detector Dan! Great video

[@andrewbaxter9395]

empathicchristian Thanks for that, I thought it was my smoke alarm and kept checking lol!

[@Youtubeuser1_me]

Thank you exactly what I needed to know

[@joannapocock6055]

Hiya Dan, if you go to poundstretchers you can get a hanging version which works much better and the best bit is it only cost 69p

[@RhomanysRealm]

I have a couple of those kill rocks in the bedroom. 3 GSDs all huffing at you all night causes a wee bit of condensation in the winter! They're pretty good. I use one of those refills every 3-4 weeks.

[@starwater9828]

Good tip (from 7 years ago!). Some indoor plants suck up moisture - might be worth trying.

[@theresacorrie5058]

Hi which indoor plant suck up moisture

[@anthonyrichardson5050]

Thankyou, woops😂. Great vid.

[@Chrisdotnorthwich]

[@mekzema1]

How long it takes to works to catch moist and water in the bottle ? Thanks for the guide as the instructions was confusing

[@sugarpop7377]

Thank you so much . I couldn't work it out! The instructions are not very good . 😂

[@24YT07]

Thankyou great video.

[@taramiller70]

Hi can use salt in dehumifers when Crystal's have run out and is salt effective in killing mold and mold spores I have mold in a bedroom i use dehumifers in my bedroom

[@MrStrangelight]

my moisture trap is leaking outside the container not in the plastic box, looks like the crystals block the edges of the container or something.did you have similar issue?

[@hellofriend4532]

I’ve just bought one from home bargains and all the crystals came out the sides 😭

[@ohiohamguy]

what type of fountain pen and ink do you use?

[@markbrookes5828]

Hi dan rub neat washing up liquid on inside of windows that stops alot of moisture cheers

[@colinjones7916]

Thank you

[@shockz18]

You only ment to use 1/2 bag

[@alliance8758]

so clean and tidy...nice toys.))

[@mrdavecee7248]

I didn't have you down as a Rastamouse fan!

[@mrdavecee7248]

It must feel good to have a president by the name of Wensleydale. I'd vote for him anyway.

[@birdiedog5]

+Dan Brown (The Narrowboat Lad) Where did you get that Rastamouse doll? I want one of those! and one of Mixie! So cool you're a fan!

[@birdiedog5]

+Dottie Dig You should do an Easy Crew puppet show!!! I saw you did some puppet shows back in the day. Bring it back!!!

[@mrdavecee7248]

+Dottie Dig Nothing Rastamouse related should ever really be encouraged. Mr Tumble on the other hand...

[@birdiedog5]

***** Sorry that I will have to kindly disagree, kind sir. Mr. Tumble bores me a bit. He doesnt have nearly the exciting, seat gripping plot twists as Rastamouse does.

[@aybw6899]

😊Awww he’s cute - why do i find this cute - 😅

[@Olan...]

Was that 2 bags of crystal meth that you poured into those plastic containers ?

[@byronbuxton8214]

That's right Dan you go for it! Why use twenty words when six hundred will do eh!

[@davewhiteley2483]

Salt does the same job
