Is the door warped ?
Did the cabinet come with weather stripping around the door frame ?
The door to my Sentinel cabinet was slightly warped so I added a tension latch at the top to hold the door closed where it was loose . |
My hygrometers have been tested recently and are accurate. The door isn't warped and the cabinet didn't come with any weather stripping, I just thought it seemed a like it was leaking humidity because the active humidifier needed refilling so often.

At least that's what I think is happening from what I've read around here  lol. |
The current seller of the shilala beads said it should be just fine, and I know there are plenty of other guys on here using active humidification along with beads. Maybe some other folks can chime in and help me figure out why this would happen
