Thank you Chris, very useful, we don't have a boat, but a touring caravan, never thought of putting the dehumidifier in to air it in the spring, use one in the house, which is old and damp!! Take care. xx
Thank you for this video! My partner and I are considering getting a 47ft narrowboat with the same bedroom layout as yours and we can see there have been issues with mould on the wall side of the bed - so this was exactly what we needed to see! Fingers crossed it works as well for us 😅
I use the Karcher after showers to remove excess water, check out the Max Air fans as used in the American RV's. The Lunos air exchange system is apparently good but not cheap. x.
Didn't expect to hear about vegan Bayleys! I always wished it existed many years ago but then I gave up alcohol and it came out haha Glad to hear it's nice! thanks for all of the tips, we are going to purchase a few things on the list. Happy New Year! Marina
Hey Marina, there are a couple of options now for vegan Baileys!!!! We actually prefer the M&S version!!!... hope you’ve had a good Yule, stay safe 💚🌱❤️
You could fit two van fans in the ceiling, one at each end of the boat, one drawing air in, the other expelling air out, so there would be a flow of air ventilating through the length of the boat.
You missed explaining why your fire reduces condensation 😁 However, brilliant vblog AND so was Shell's last week. Comfortable, non-condescending, friendly, fun and informative. Thank you both.
A BIG WARNING! If you start a suction-fan it creates a low pressure inside the boat that may suck the combustion-gases from the fire in to the boat, in an extreme case it may suck the flames in to the boat. One solution is to use a stove with separate air intake from the outside, but that would not solve the issue with potential gas leakage. When combining fans with combustion the proper road is to get a stove with outdoor air-intake in combination with balanced ventilation, that is matched extractor-fan and inlet-fan. When it comes to the thing with using an inlet-fan (what ever the correct name is) that pushes air in, the thing is that it pushes the moist air in to what ever path the air finds, generally causing condensation at unintended places. The classical thing on yachts is to put a radiator under the bunk, with air-holes in the side. possibly with an air gap along the hull side. Why are you not running the compressor dehumidifier constantly (besides the noise when working from home)? The electricity you put in heats the boat, and the latent heat released when the moister condensates also heats the boat. If I remember correctly from the data sheets you get the same amount of heat from the moisture as from the compressor if the dehumidifier is running at full capacity. (In sahara you would only get the electric part.) I installed a shower cabin with a roof in a house. That makes marvels to the amount of steam in the bathroom since the steam condenses at the walls and roof. (With out dripping down ;-) )
No idea if it's a diesel stove thing but only time I get condensation is after doing a big wash load or a long shower. Frame transfer is it, never anything on a window.
Nice vlog Chris. Where did you get the surround for the mushroom vent fans? I looked about but didn’t see anything so ended up building a bulky box around one... yours looks much better!
@@ChrisandShell hahaha eeeeeeew!!! 🤪 Not too bad here thanks. Really muddy and wet everywhere on the farm and we've just had to 'lock down' our chickens (avian flu prevention), but we're ticking along and making the very best of the good stuff 😁👍xx
It really works my mum used to use little tubs of salt in the caravan ,old wife’s trick salt drys the air in the narrow boat . Good luck. Happy safe Xmas 👍
Thanks for another informative and highly watchable vlog, you guys are brill! Anyone have any experience/opinions on the 'Aero 360' moisture absorbing gadget by Unibond..? Am hopefully on the verge of buying my own narrowboat and will be a liveaboard...keen to keep on top of condensation etc before it starts to cause problems, so will be trying a few of these tips for sure!
Excellent vlog! Don't know if you've heard of a company called envirovent? They do brilliant extractor fans and condensation solutions. We worth checking out it your looking to fit better fans. I have two, they are brilliant '
The instant pot claims to draw 100amps peak. Do you know what it averages over a full cook? Edited to add: ahh I see having watched the whole video, that you don't do the numbers thing. Perhaps someone else knows?
steve steve 10 amps maybe- that would be 2400 watts at the UK voltage. 100 amps is 24 kw, roughy equivalent to the power requirements of ten domestic ovens...

Thank you for all of your hard work and experience trying to cover everything living on the water

Thank you 😊 💚🌱❤️
Very interesting - that Instant Pot looks very good
It is David, highly recommend it!!! Stay safe.... 💚🌱❤️
Lots of good ideas, thanks

Hey Christine, yes it would be perfect for the van with all your cupboard doors open.... you stay safe too 💚🌱❤️
Thanks Chris for this vlog. Even though I am not on a narrowboat it was interesting to know about these things. Stay safe and well as always xx
Really awesome and helpful video. Thank you from this new boater!
Thanks Charlotte and best of luck with your journey afloat 💚🌱❤️
I see a "van fan" episode in your future! I'd love to see it.

Good luck Jess, it’s a battle that you can win!!!.... enjoy your journey ❤️🌱💚
@@ChrisandShell we'll take that confidence forward 😊🌊
I can't thank you enough for this video we literally was looking into it now hope your both doing well 😊
We are good thank you, and thanks for the feedback. Stay safe and happy ❤️🌱💚
Some useful tips noted for when we join you on the cut next year. Cheers for that :)
Solar roof vents are you’re best friend
I use the Karcher after showers to remove excess water, check out the Max Air fans as used in the American RV's. The Lunos air exchange system is apparently good but not cheap. x.
Thanks Valerie, will have a look at the Lunos, thank you 😊❤️🌱💚

That would be amazing Claire.... we are definitely going to discuss this further..... TY ❤️🌱💚😊

Thanks Paul, as always. Hope you are safe and well? 💚🌱❤️
the instant pot sounds good, will have to investigate further :-)
Hey Alistair, we were sceptical at first, but we’ve used it at LEAST once a day since we’ve had it!!!!! Awesome big of kit.... 👍👌❤️🌱💚

I found that highly Interesting Chris.
Thank you Sir, it’s a battle at this time of year fo’ sure! Hope you are safe and healthy? 💚🌱❤️
@@ChrisandShell u2 guys

Hey Louisa, they are from Midland Chandlers, i think they are about £15? Thanks for watching 😊💚🌱❤️
@@ChrisandShell thanx mate
What size instant pot are you using in your video?
It’s the 3 litre pot, Maisie xxx
A great method is salt cheap as chips put salt in a dish place around boat works a treat
Someone say cheap? Brilliant tip Michael, will definitely be trying this! ❤️🌱💚
Brilliant video! Very entertaining, definitely going to have to get me some of that almond Baileys!! But YOU USED THE 'M' WORD.... TWICE!!!! 🤢😬😆
It was a struggle saying it a second time!!!!!.... MOIST!
😉 Hope you are ok Roo ? ❤️🌱💚
@@ChrisandShell hahaha eeeeeeew!!! 🤪 Not too bad here thanks. Really muddy and wet everywhere on the farm and we've just had to 'lock down' our chickens (avian flu prevention), but we're ticking along and making the very best of the good stuff 😁👍xx
Glad to hear it.... keep going!!! ❤️🌱💚
Don’t know if you’ve tried small tubs of salt for condensation,it works in caravans should work in a narrow boat 👍
Someone else mentioned that, definitely going to try it..... 👌💚🌱❤️

Sorry Steve, I can have a look through the booklet see if there is any info’. Would it be worth contacting them direct?
