Are you venting into your attic or thought your attic outdoors? As the former will result in a huge mold problem for your house.

I was thinking the same thing. Do NOT vent into the attic alone. You need to move that air out of the house if you're going that route.

Also, holy shit. Setting a tent up that size must've been a task. I'd just run in the damn room lol

Either way, signing up for this ride. Bought the ticket, seat's assigned, my ass is planted 😎
