Welcome To The Fourms !!

Water Cooling & Condensation is not a problem.

Condensation usually occurs when you're using a Peltier setup.
Extream Heat and Extream Cold put together = Condensation.

Regular H20 cooling is mostly room temp.

Peltiers and H20 work great together. That's when you need condensation protection.

Read some of the Beginners Guides on both topics.
You'll learn a lot !

Oh, and I'm no expert. I've jus had more mistakes than you. lol
:cool:
 
The quick answer: For the humidity level and temperatures
in most people's homes you can go about 7C below
ambient before condensation can form. That means most
bongs wont be a problem. Straight water cooling can't
be a problem ever. With pelts....look out!:)
