We have several projects going on, one being a small 16x20 shed type structure, completely hand made, non-pro, that is attached to an existing larger structure. My main concern is the metal roofing. We have prepared everything and are ready to lay the first sheet. HOWEVER, I am concerned about condensation. We have the purlins in place, therefore is there a product, to your knowledge, that we could place over the purlins, before the metal is in place? Or, would we need to place it under the purlins/between the trusses? Normally, I would not be concerned as this is not a heated structure and will only be used ocassionally for horses/ponies. However, we would like to utilize the above area for hay storage. In order to have this hay area, it's imperative that we have NO moisture/condensation. Venting is also an issue but it will be an open type structure so I assume it may not be a HUGE issue. I can send photos if needed. Thanks in advance! [email protected]
