Dampp-Chaser question

My opinion is that for most installations using a bottom cover that only a
single tank is needed with 3 dehumidifier bars, one 38 watt and two 25 watt
bars.

Hi Paul,

DC makes a twin tank system with a single filler tube. Depending on your
location it may need extra dehumidifier bars. Plan on spending double the
usual time installing it. Include a bottom cover and string cover for
maximum benefit.
