Popular Post Riverstyx Posted March 29, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted March 29, 2019 I'm not sure if this is the right place to put this, so move it if need be. The build-out of my man cave has commenced, and it will include a small walk-in humidor. I thought I'd update the progress along the way here for anybody that's interested...I always like seeing other people's builds. It's a small room, and will double as my office/smoking room. The closet that will be the humidor had a normal door in it that was removed, the opening widened and will have french doors. Cedar was all provided by Bob. It's still a mess... 16 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good point, but it won't be getting direct sunlight once it's all said and done. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's exactly my plan, just need one more kid to move out so I can take over room! What is the plan for entry door into humidor? Big opening to fill, build out with single door? Sliding glass doors? Nice to have some etched glass with "humidor" on it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Etching humidor would be awesome. Looked at at a lot of options for ventilation. Going to start with just a fan and cover the return. If I have to, I’ll add a full split system. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DeskSmkr Posted April 3, 2019 Share Posted April 3, 2019 Looks great, love to see more photos and hear about the progress. I’ve been working on my man cave, and while I’m not ready to share my pictures just yet, I can share success with ventilating. I’ve been partially opening two windows that are across the room from each other and blocked off the bottom half of one opening, and the top half of the other. This, combined with an electric heater and cooler outdoor temps, creates a gentle cross flow where warm indoor air flows out the top opening of one window, and cool air comes in the lower opening on the other window. It’s been working well enough when there is a temperature differential. Simple and effective. If necessary, I open all the windows. The room usually gets sealed up soon after each smoking session, and a small air filter, with an internal UV bulb, runs on low all the time. The room has residual cigar odor but it’s mild and agreeable. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
