Default Dealing with Humidity

Hello, Got a question on humidity and how you all deal with it.Specially people with there big tanks upstairs

We have a fairly new house and I have my tank upstairs in the living room (125g plus sump so like 160ish of water) and over the winter i had a lot of problems with the humidity the windows would all be fogged and sometimes if i didn't wipe them all down regliously would result in some mold around the and nothing the portable dehumidifier could handle.

Now i know in the summer it won't be a problem cause the AC will be running and helps to dry the air but I'm trying to figure out options for next winter.


Thanks
Craig Dillman

I remember posting this a while ago and some people said a HRV unit i contacted a few places that did heating and cooling and they weren't sure if that would help I'm assuming they arnt informed as we usually don't have to deal with high humidity around here
