Hut Roof Sweating?

The ice hut I paid way too much for was finished with insulated walls, but the roof was just studs with tin on top? Don't know what the heck they were thinking?
After first use yesterday, it didn't take long for the roof to begin sweating and dripping with a couple of people and fire going.

I am 100% not the handiest....

What is the easiest fix for some who knows how to use a hammer and screwdriver?

Thank you for any help guys!

You need some ventilation near the top. A roof vent or a vent near the peak to let some hot air out and some cool air in. Just like in your house. I'm sure u can rig something up. Post a pic of the hut and I can offer an idea of vent placement.

I've no idea what your hat's ventilation is like - hopefully has something exiting near the top. However sounds like your walls are decently insulated on the sides but missing some on the top?

If so - should be able to by some Styrofoam sheets, cut to size and glue to the ceiling?

hot moist air with no means of escape,install a vent.

Place on each side of the hut a hole and insert a dryer cover have it with a rod that you can open and close them so the air can circulate and you have control over it make sure the holes are towards the peak.Frank Nuclear good luck

try insulating the roof with Styrofoam sheets and add a vent with a damper so you can control the heat flow.

I just keep the door a jar even though the vents are open just keeps it from getting the old cabin smell in it.

You need to insulate the ceiling, the attached photo is the ceiling of my hut. The roof is aluminum printers sheet, the insulation is 3/4 inch styrofoam fitted between the rafters and secured with 1/4 inch square cleats. No condensation problems.
As already mentioned you should put a vent in. It should be as high as possible to help exchange the air in your hut. Especially if you are using propane heat that isn't vented, something like a Buddy heater. Burning propane creates lots of moisture and needs to be vented.

IFH thanks for the picture in your post!

Looks like you have a well built hut with thought out electrical lighting.

At far end of picture what is box against the ceiling? Is that your vent? Is it powered?

Thanks

Hello BN the box in the background is one of two speakers wired to an old car radio/cassette player. Nice to have some tunes when fishing. The upper vent is in the top of the door, not powered. Electrically the hut was originally wired for 12 volt incandescent lights but do to cost and hard to find I wired up a couple of 115V/ 75W inverters to the 12 volt system and use the high efficiency CFL lamps. Works great and saves battery.

IFH - that is good thought using the florescent via a converter - and still saving power.

Another thought would be to use the marine battery from CT that has two AC sockets and plug in direct.

you being in a hut have little chance of breaking the bulbs - but for my flip wouldn't work. I need to go LED likely DC.

Thanks for replying and sharing your design thoughts!
