Make sure your floor will take the weight. 4,000 lbs plus 4 (big) adults could take that to 5,000 lbs - you don't wanna end up in the basement!

salp Posted December 30, 2009 Report Share Posted December 30, 2009 Roger is right... as long as you havea proper ventialtion system you can put it inside the house... but make sure your floor can handle the weight. BEst to get it inspected to make sure it can handle over 200 lbs/ square foot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HockeyKat Posted December 30, 2009 Report Share Posted December 30, 2009 I did a bit of reading out of curiousity, and it looks like you can put it inside, as long as you have a dehumidifier, a good cover, and keep it closed when not in use. You can combine the dehumidifier and exhaust fan, if you can find one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's funny you say that...I just so happen to have a brand new dehumidifier.....cool I am going to loews this weekend to purchase the highest possibly cfm rated fan I can find...I think they are 100 bucks or so.......
