I checked out the sites you mention and they are more about de-humidification. We are trying to maintain a high level of humidity in the russian bath. The question we had was with regard with outside air and whether or not we had to use a high level of outside air (uses lots of energy to heat...
The bath will be wet and hot. The room is 540 sq ft and 7 feet high, so we figure about 30 people at maximum capacity. The bath is at a private gym - not a public bath house.
