Our old bsmt dehumidifier crapped out, and took it to the repair guy-non-viable repair.
So, with the new one in now, and running, and the water in my shop (from all the rain here) finally going away, I am wondering--what do you all think is acceptable humidity level to maintain to keep the rust down in the shop?
Have not had rust problems here so far. dont' want any. The dehumidifier has a "continuous" setting as opposed to a humidity setting down to, I think 50%.
Do I want to just set in on continuous for the most protection possible, burn it out, and just plop down another $200 in another year or two, or is 60% humidity OK for the majority of rust prevention?
As always, thanks, D
