I'm just getting my e-brewing rig set up in the basement, and on my test run water was dripping out between the two halves of the fan housing!
It's the hurricane 745 cfm

Anyone have this happen? My basement is about 65 degrees and it was in the 40's outside. The hood is about 2 feet above the kettle, the fan is mounted to the hood, and there is a reducer at the fan outlet from 8 inches to a 6 inch pipe. That goes 18 inches straight up to a 6 inch 90 degree elbow that goes straight out the wall.
I'm thinking some of the silver duct tape to seal it up, but I'm not sure if the trapped water would damage the fan. I ran the fan for 20 minutes afterward to dry everything out.
Any advice?
