    Creating Air Flow in the Shipping Container

    March 5, 2018 /

    Ever since we got the shipping container we have had a problem with condensation on the inside, especially dripping from the ceiling. Makes storing anything inside sketchy.  We picked up a new, second hand roof turbine to help get the air flowing.
