when you screw inox/stainless steel on the regular boat structure steel, I'd expect corrosion sources from electrolysis over time, if not isolated (sika around screws zum Beispiel) 🤔?

[@gjheydon]

for the rigdes in the roof where the condensation will now be coming from why not fill it with expanding form. You would most likely need to create a longer hose so you can get it to the middle of the roof but sure completely fix the condensation problem.

Thats not going to prevent condensation in the ceiling. Sealing it up will reduce but not prevent. Gonna have to use spray foam. Any air space will have condensate. Any area with even minor condensate is a great space for mold.

Warum keine DIY Raumlufttechnischeanlage (RLT)? Ähnlich wie die Foganlage.

[@Total_Egal]

Die Idee mit dem Diffussionssperrentape ist ja nett. Klappt aber so nur bei Gebäuden mit hoher Luftfeuchtebelastung von Innen und Dichter Gebäude Außenhülle. Dort ist die Problemlage aber andersn. Der Taupunkt sitzt somit dort in der Wand und dort drinne kann keine Feuchte aus der in der massiven Wand ja nicht vorhandenen Luft auskondensieren. Dein Problem ist unter dem Dachblech kommt sehr leicht Außenluft hinein und kondensiert dort aus. Ebenso Durchbrechen die Stahlträger die Dämmschicht und wirken als Kondensationspunkte. Alles in allem ist die Konstruktion so leider nicht sinnvoll. Beis in den Sauren Apfel und bau ein Dach mit den Wandelementen. Halt nicht rund sondern als Spitzdach leicht Schräg mit Dachspitze oder als Pultdach. Alle Wand Anschlüße definitiv gründlich verschäumen und offene Dämmstellen und Schaum mit Dichtband versehen. Das noch Verblechen oder Verkleiden gegen Witterung, Viechzeug und weils bessere Aussieht. Für einfache Betretbarkeit kann man immer noch Laufstege auf beide Seiten mit etwas Abstand aufbauen oder gar ein ganzes Schutzdach über der eigentlichen Hülle verbauen. Z.b. mit dem bisherigen Trapezblech mit 5cm Abstand. Dann hast du da Luftspalt über deinem eigentlichen Dach. Wäre Regen und Sonnenschutz und kannst die Zwischenlage im Sommer als natürlich ventiliertes Dach kühler bekommen. Was du da definitiv brauchst ist ein vollwertiges dichtes Dachsystem das quasi so auch bei Häusern eingesetzt wird mit entsprechender Lage für Wasserablauf bei Regen und Schnee . Sowie eben vollständige Luft/Wasserdichtigkeit nach beidne Seiten und in der Dämmebene gegen dein Kondenastionsproblem. Dein Taupunkt der außenluft liegt dort nunmal außen fast auf der Dämmlage bzw. eben unter dem Trapezblech hier. Diese Verbindung zwischen den Schichteh muss Luftdicht (bzw. Wasserdampfdicht) sein. Und gleichzeitig muss diese Außenlage aber ebenso Kondensationswasser bzw. gefrierendes Kondensationswasser wie rauhreif, Eis oder eben Tau als Laufwasser ableiten. Wetterdicht bzw. Regendicht/Schneefest könnte auch eine weitere Lage mit etwas Abstand sein. Oder die Außenhaut muss eben alles auf einmal leisten. Das ist dein Außenluft Kondensationsproblem. ABER du hast ebenso ein Innenluftkondensationsproblem! All die Stahlträger, durchstechenden Verschraubungen, Rohren, die Luftspalte zwischen den Platten um die Träger ringsrum. All das sind Kältepunkte bei denen dein Innenraumwasserdampf ebenso den dort befindlichen Taupunkt erreicht und ebenso auskondensiert. Du hast also das Kondensationsproblem von beiden Seiten. Ich sehe da nur diese Wandplatten als komplett durchgehende isolationslage als die Lösung die irgendwie Handhabbar ist.

Ceiling will not be vapor proof this way. You still need another layer of vapor barrier hermetically closed in within the 10°C (or better 12°C) line of Your temperature profile. Condensation is a b**ch on boats, and it gets nastily unhealthy real quick.

[@roundearther272]

Du brauchst zwischen der Isolierung und dem Blechdach eine Dampfsperre.

[@frozenfritz]

ja ich glaub das ist ein klassisches beispielt für "dampfsperre vergessen". Die warme luft kann mehr feuchtigkeit aufnehmen und kondensiert an der kalten decke ab. eine einfache PVC folie unterhalb der isolierung sollte das verhindern.

[@towoombaresident8491]

Use cans of instant spray foam sealer in the trapezoid gaps on the outside. The foam will expand and seal each side there fore stopping the ingress of the cold into the ceiling.

[@maxime.s]

I'd use the "alutrix" steam barrier on your metal roof. Frim top to bottom : the roof, the isolation, then the Alutrix steam barrier. Finishing the details with Tescon tape :-)

[@rogerrabbitmusicunlimited]

I would spray foam at the least the out side of the roof in the raised ridges. Then add sealant.

[@jefflange3009]

You will chase your tail on the ceiling until it is done correctly. No amount of trying to seal off moisture from below will solve the issue, at best help slightly. The missing component is ventilation, which is as, or in this situation, more important than insulation. Any and all air gaps between the metal roof and the top of the insulation must be colder or the same temperature of the outside air or condensation will occur. Period. You will never get enough R-value with the few inches of insulation you are installing to accomplish this. Heat is escaping causing condensation in all air gaps including those as slight as a millimeter. So there are two options, passive ventilation with an inlet, typically in the soffit and an exit typically in the ridge of the roof. You don't have the the depth. Fact is, your only solution is closed foam sprayed directly to the underside of the sheet metal roof. Google what happens to insulated cavities that are not properly ventilated cause until you spray the correct foam, you're screwed

[@carlf8291]

I think if you had it sprayed with foam it would seal it there wouldn't be any air space.

[@camerazeye7923]

Get some dehumidifiers. The tape will help but because there is no air movement above the instillation you qill get humidity in there.

[@stephenweston2973]

Watching this episode and what the topics were, why not use the fans to help with the moisture problem. Evac the smoke to the area above the foam and thus out from under the edge of the roof. The moving air may push some of the moisture out and get the both issues fixed together.

[@matthewscarborough2597]

spray foam then put the panels back would get rid of all the excess air space and would stay dry better

[@NateOffGrid]

For your roof, you might need some forced air venting to help evaporate the moisture, or at least force most of the moisture out.

[@Tom-ru2kv]

Spray foam will sort the roof mate, I had the same problem in my shed

[@TrapShooter68]

Fog machine? No! Use dry ice into hot water. That oily crap will get everywhere no matter how good your exhaust system is.

[@philo23]

with the ceiling I'm pretty sure you either need to either have kind of open-air venting, or completely fill the void between the roof and ceiling panels with some kind of closed cell foam, otherwise the condensation is still going to condense from the warm air on to the cooler surface.

[@duncancremin1708]

Correct. If the area above the ceiling is cooler than below, but warmer than outside, that’s the perfect situation for condensation to accumulate. Eliminating the void is one way of fixing the problem. Any cool surface is a problem, when there’s warm, moist air around. Ensuring good airflow helps, but eliminating the cool surface and drying the warm air are the best ways.

[@davef1543]

a Vapor Barrier would help something like plastic sheeting need to keep interior air off the roof

[@rxcalvosa]

40 years in building trades has taught me that everyone has an opinion, so here's mine. Your approach to solving the condensation problem is the correct one. The more you can prevent warm, moist air from getting past the insulation, the more you will reduce condensation. 'Dead air' will insulate but just like 'hermetically sealed' is a lofty goal.

[@remielowik]

I would buy a pockethole jig, a lot of your wood screws + dowels could be replaced with a hidden pockethole instead.

[@marvinthomas8165]

Take spray foam and spray it on the end of the roof to prevent so much cold air from moving through that may help the condensation as well.

[@hmoxh]

If your taping seals the inside completely you will not have any more condensation. There are a lot of tinkerers around ventilation and humidity barriors but you are on the right track, it is the hot inside air (that can carry more humidity) that is condensating on the cold metal roof. Also you should try to achieve a slight "under pressure" inside so you dont push out the inside air into the insulation, easiest achieved by drawing air out with fans (typically in kitchen and bathroom) and having inlets in the other rooms. This is the simplest form of working ventilation.

[@scottschram1507]

I’m outta here!!!

[@mundanestuff]

The ridges or channels in the underside of the ceiling steel can serve as ventilation channels for air to flow from eves to a ridge vent. Circulate air drawn in around the perimeter and vent it out the centre/top. It doesn't have to have high volume to keep the condensation down, it just has to be moving.

[@daveyh-w6q]

can you use a dehumidifier to minimize the moisture on the inside of the roof?

[@bakerfx4968]

Could you use expanding foam in voids of the roof?

[@Total_Egal]

He could but you can not realy asure you close all airgaps. Maybee with Sprayfoaminsulation. But the steelbeams are still petruding the insulation layer. On them will be Condenastion from the outside and the inside air. You could hope for the beast putting sprayfoam all arrund and a vapor barrier from the inside. But in my optinion the only solution is to use the wallpanels above the steel construction as a roof. Connect the Insulation layer airtight to the wall. Vaporbarrier from both sides. And additional the outside needs protection layer against Weather, Rain, Condenastion and so on... he got a serious problem inherent in the (wrong) base construction of that thing. RV Camper, Arctic/Sibierian Expedition Vehicles, Commercial Housboats.. all those constructions got a not interrupted continous watertight and airtight insulation layer all arround. Usually a booring rectangular box made out of composit panels like he used on the walls. Interresting to know the first Arctic Expedition Vehicle also got a water condensation problem with Insualtion Layer petruding Stuff. Simple a Screws holding the Panels, a weldet on Standoff, surely Steelbeams or even only the Steel Edge Protection of the Panels or the Doorjam (metal) Profile. all of it was a condensation point or in this extreme conditiond even got that cold it was having ice on the srewheads inside the cabin. Forming long Ice neadles. Its an extreme Example but it ilustrates the Problem he got verry well.

[@frozenfritz]

@@Total_Egal vapor barrier from the inside

[@ryderhook]

Erstmal danke für deine Videos. Ich habe keine Ahnung ob das funktioniert, aber würde es nicht helfen von einer Seite zur anderen eine Art Lüftung durch die Kanäle zu schaffen? Damit würde doch verhindert, das dort sich Staunässe bildet.

[@MassimoPizzoglio]

Aren't you afraid of the formation of mould between the roof and the insulation? A forced ventilation would help?

[@RJCMT-3]

Yes, the answer is one of two options to eliminate condensation - increase airflow in a void (which you just sealed), or completely seal up all voids. You need a better roof substrate and a rubber membrane.

[@Araye]

drinks... above the batteries... i love it!

[@Falney]

Add a ducted fan along one side of the ceiling, for it to blow through the gaps. It will cycle the moist air out from the roof. Even better if you can drop the ceiling by 2cm

[@adrianabbott4623]

What a waste of what could be a beautiful and comfy live-aboard boat.

[@oscarbreetveld8715]

Now you have isolated the Perspex plates with Ducttape, you need to cover the whole sealing from left to right and from front to back with a plastic layer that locks your inner space in a air tight way so that no air or moisture can pass this barrier. So all this plastic tracks should also be taped with plastic isolation tape (that’s is better than duct tape) . Only than you will have a real isolation that is airtight and closed!

[@danmattes60]

You should use spray foam, no gaps for condensation to form.

[@chrisjuza1249]

I've been working and living on boats for 35 years, they are never done until the day you sell them.

[@alc818]

Let's see... I'm pretty sure that the source of the water above your ceiling is from the cold surface (roof) condensing the humidity from the cabin. Like others have suggested, you need to either eliminate the source of water (humidity) flowing to the cold surface or insulate the cold surface. Possibly the easiest solution would be to make a low volume, closed loop air circulation system that flows air between the ceiling insulation and the cold roof. Inline with that air loop, ideally, there would be some sort of de-humidifier which directs the condensate overboard or a desiccant that you can change periodically. I suggest a "closed loop" system so you do not loose too much cabin heat through the cold roof due to convection, although some loss is inevitable... Simply "sealing" the insulation with tape will just trap the water that does get in (it will) and create an incubating space mold or fungus.

[@nicolek4076]

[@DadBuilds]

[@pzykezutube1165]

You should be able to find an eaves filler strip which is designed to go under the roofing sheet where it meets the top of the wall plate, if not you can measure the air gaps on the roof panels and then 3D print a template so you can make foam stoppers to fill those gaps and stop the cold air getting under the sheets

[@bgd73]

condensation, winter problem only..? use a positive pressure heating sytem.. this means cool air from outside, superheated, pumped inside. hot air furnace is game. I live in maine usa..even wooden houses do weird things. I had a couple of all steel mobile huts as well. Something as simple as a little wabasto gets a lot of it.

[@rotterdamovie86]

Did you cut your hair?

[@richardclark4610]

At a minimum to cure the condensation problem, you should have a sheet plastic vapor barrier between the metal roof panels and the ceiling insulation panels. The vapor barrier would hopefully allow the condensate to flow out from the edges of the roof. As is, the water will eventually cause mold issues and eventually attack the insulation panels as well.

[@timfish]

Nope, you need to stop the water getting to the cold surface. Putting a water barrier between the metal roof and insulation will do virtually nothing

[@frozenfritz]

@@timfish correct, it needs to be on the lower side (inside) - you need to stop the warm air (containing more water) getting in contact with a cold surface

[@manfredschmalbach9023]

Vapor barrier ought to be between the room and the innermost, warmest surface You got.

[@rfunder]

On a “normal” house, the insulation and the tiles also have space where air can circulate, and on the inside you have a “humidity barrier”, so the humidity from the inside can’t affect the insulation and create condensation. Your roof, insulation and inside are not separate and you will probably get the problem again if you don’t “close” the inside to the outside. You should have put up a “barrier” on the inside against the insulation.

hi mate ,,,you can get foam insert strips to match your roof profile ,,,,probably from the same company tou got the sheets from ok cheers from the uk

[@alexneville4394]

Stacking the fans so close is a poor idea. The second one will do little, You could do with separating them if you can, ideally between sections to the air stop rotating between them, but at least a few inches between would help (especially with some fins in it to stop the air rotating, as you have a printer). Getting one that has reverse blades would work so close, but you cant just turn the one you have around and run it backwards, thats the same as it is now.

[@Toby_the_Glen]

Even then, I don't think that setup will pull enough volume.

[@barthanes1]

What you need to do to fix the condensation problem is spray foam insulate the entire under surface of the roof metal. As long as you have the metal sheet exposed to the cold exterior air and the warm moist interior air, it will make condensation. Sealing the cracks with tape will only hold the moisture in the ceiling and cause mold and corrosion.

[@jamesfete8921]

Putting a countertop for drinks directly above your electronics is probably not a good idea.

[@BreakingBarriers2DIY]

You are doing the right thing for that condensation humidity. Restricting any interior air from getting near the roof is the key. Vapor barriers are performing this function in housing. If you still detect moisture… just find where the barrier on the interior is imperfect…rather than going from the outside. Great fun to see the awesome projects you take on.

[@ItsFriscoBaby]

The moisture on your ceiling is not coming from the gaps in the roofing panels. It comes from inside and condenses on the cold underside of the roof. The sealing tape will help as would a complete vapour barrier and better ventilation inside

[@thomask.8533]

Agreed, it's mostly coming from the exhaled moisture in your breath. Proper ventilation will help unless the outside air is saturated as well. You might have to use a dehumidifier. With the ceiling sealed up, it will just condense somewhere else, most likely on the windows or any exposed steel.

[@PaulRansonArt]

@@thomask.8533 We use dehumidifiers in our art studio and main house to keep moisture down to an acceptable level. The UK is particularly damp during the winter months. And with the added need to prevent heat loss our older homes become breeding grounds for damp and condensation as we add draught proofing and insulation. If I had the money I'd install an air to air heat exchanger with dehumidifier.

[@BarnacleBilltheSailor]

Just in case you are not aware, they make an EVA foam profile seal that fits the contour of your roofing material. It's cheap and you just place it into the irregular gap and it seals out weather, insects, etc.

If you heat the vent convers with a heat source, you can bend them to match the radius of the pipe. Used that method several times with my 3D prints. Nice work!

[@axelSixtySix]

Halo, the best way to eliminate condensation is to place the insulation on the outside or ensure that no warm air comes into contact with the metal roofing. This can be achieved by using expanding foam (closed cells low expansion) to securely attach the insulating material with no air gap.

[@charleshutchings9355]

Always enjoy your videos whatever the content. I was thinking that a coat of FlexSeal on the roof might help with the condensation issue. Have a great New Year!

[@Total_Egal]

The condensation also happens on the outside of the Insulation layer. Yea sure Sometimes also below the Roofmetal but dripping onto the insulation Layer below. But allways in this Airgap. He needs something like a sprayfoam insulation (who might not be working as well es some might think. Since there are steelbeams petruding the Insulation Layer! But better would be to change the roof to the wallpanel system. Since there is no airgap between the outer vapor and raintight shell and the insulation layer.

[@zh4k]

Big fan, sorry to hear of your troubles with the roof. Building science can be a bugger, but its pretty simple once you get a hang of it. You need what is called a vapor diffusion port. That should fix your issue, along with a dehumidifier possibly and a heat pump water heater. All the best.

[@Total_Egal]

No thats not the only Problem. He got condenastion from the inside with the heated and moist Air on all the airgaps between the Panels but also on the seems to the steel structure. Since the Steel is cold on the outside. He can try to solve it with the Tape or a vapor barrier. BUT he got also Condenastion on the outside above the insulation. Thats from the outside air comming into the airgap below the metal roof. AND outside air condenastion in the gaps between the panels and in the ssems to the metal beams, petruding fasteners and wallpaneljoints and so on. He have to solve the Proplem from both sides! With a vaporbarrier claerly but also from the outside against standing and runnig water. Not even the Rain or Snow thats an extra Layer. Just for the condenastion or directly freezing water on the oputside of the insulation layer. I would say rip off the existing roof and put the wallpanels all arround without any gaps above all Metal Beams. Connect this Insulation layer airtight to the Wallpanels and close the gaps with a adhesive water and vaportight tape.

[@zh4k]

@@Total_Egal I was assuming the roof was air sealed, getting everything sealed and perfect is hard unless you use spray foam. I'd recommend open-air venting with a peaked roof then you can just do a ceiling of gypsum board, insulation and thats it. You don't need a vapor barrier because the gypsum board is the vapor barrier. But if you don't go this route and everything is closed you need to seal everything and use a vapor barrier. As well as the vapor diffusion port. That's very complicated though and all that requires expensive barriers, expensive insulation, expensive caulks, etc. With open air, its not only simpler, but cheaper.

LOL. I also like gaffers tape (for mike/speaker cables and other things I don't want covered with duck tape splooge), kapton/polyimide tape to isolate things electronically and sometimes chemically as it doesn't typically outgas (they use in on orbital platforms on the ISS), wiring loom cloth tape for low temp wires where I don't what to use more expensive tapes, PTFE tape (for battery cables, high temp things), liquid electrical tape and then there is copper and aluminum tape.
