Due to increasing the rhaco collection, I moved them all into a slightly bigger shed. Fully insulated, with extractor on a temp stat. Well all looked good until today when the temp reached 100f Shocked

Managed to cool the shed down with sprinklers but still couldn't risk it again without me there...so I had to buy another air con unit Sad

Temp is now set at a steady 80f, I also found a humidifier for £6.99, not sure how good it is but for that price I thought I'd give it a go!

Im having the same problem i set a new shed up 2 weeks ago and insulated it all with 1" Celotex.I had to block out the windows too as the sun coming through the windows and bouncing off the foil on the celotex made the temps rocket even though all the stats had turned them selfs off!.Still the trilineata's outside are loving the weather.
