The construction of my new walk-in cigar humidor is underway! With my growing collection of cigars, and the prospect of adding some wine, I needed more space… at least that’s what I decided! 😅
So, I contracted with Vigilant Inc, the leader in the construction of high-end walk-in humidors and wine cellars, to design and build the cabinents to the humidor. After my initial design consultarion with Vigilant and the construction of the cabients underway, it is now time to building the room out with a local contractor.
Based in New Hampshire, Vigilant Inc also specialize in the designing of wine cellars. So I thought why just build a walk-in humidor, when you can build a walk-in humidor AND wine cellar!
In addition to updates on the walk-in humidor progress, I have been working on a few design updates to my smoke filtration system as well to improve how effectively it works.

I love how you have been talking about building a walk-in humidor for quite a while and are actually taking the plunge. Look forward to the development videos.

@HillBilly1905 Год назад

I have to say your determination to do it right is astounding. Thank you for sharing it with us.

@saparicio89 7 месяцев назад

@melgibson7313 Год назад

I’m sorry Kirby, but I couldn’t resist laughing at those exposed vents.

@alejandrososa5146 Год назад

Such a slip-up could shake the cigar world to its very core!

Research. Selection. Range of Experience & Knowledge. Reputation for Excellence. "You pay for, what you get". Always a learning curve when someone's standard for excellence is greater than the person procured to perform a service.

Kirby, you are now an expert in the Quality, Craftsmanship and Tradition of HVAC systems.

@haraldsulzmann3893 Год назад

Thank you for updating. I can't wait to see it finally finished.

@brinkerpatrick Год назад

As a mechanical engineer and construction project manager; either fire your current PM, or hire a good one and quit trying to manage & direct the design and renovation work yourself. All these headaches, setbacks, changes, and added costs could have been easily avoided....

@BuffaloNickel9 5 месяцев назад

Sure, if only they hired "an expert" like you everything would be perfect in your world right? 😄

@november_whiskey85 Год назад

Now THIS is dedication to the cause! Anyone that watches this channel wouldn't think you're insane, they'd be envious! Awesome system and congratulations on all your hard work and vision coming to fruition! Cheers!

@punisher6001 7 месяцев назад

Have plans to build my own w.i.h. and your video is that motivation I needed. Thanks for sharing!!!

@cgars Год назад

It's going to be amazing, I can feel it! 🤩

@Mungkee97 11 месяцев назад

You’re not crazy, I’d love to have a system like that in my house. There’s a way to do things once and leave it, and there’s a way to do things quick and have to come back to fix them. You made the right call doing it the right way first!

@MrCakers Год назад

I absolutely love what you are doing Kirby. Please keep it up!

@gailsack2635 Год назад

One can never plan enough! There is always something to learn, regardless of years of experience.

What a fantastic video it will be when you invite Edward and Eddie to christen the new walk-in humidor in your new home, I can't wait! Good luck Kirby.

Why would you wish Dallas on those gentlemen?

@christophergermano6740 Год назад

Your attention to detail is impeccable. Well done Kirby. I'm looking forward to your video on the final version of your humidor and your house as well as the Christening of your humidor. Your videos have and continue to educate me and thank you for giving me a glimpse into the finer things in life and a way to obtain some of those finer things through your website. If I ever happen to be in Dallas I will take you up on your offer and I will bring cigars to share. Thanks again from New York.

Mr Allison, I’m a Dallas local and custom home builder. I’d be happy to consult on any of these projects over a good cigar any time you’d like. I’ve put wine rooms in multiple homes both new and existing. I’d be happy to help. Best, James

@A_English_Gent 10 месяцев назад

All looks very exciting Kirby, the adventure continues. I suppose hindsight is a wonder thing, but at least you know now, and further projects you may have in the future and for others this will benefit.

@STW1964 Год назад

I really like how you explain the building process. As a new subscriber having only watched your London videos, I really enjoyed this change of subject.

@greggani4716 Год назад

Amen, Kerby! Do it right the first time. I agree we have no vices other than cigar smoking and it's a lot better than smoking under the vent a hood in the kitchen! LOL I would love to see your smoking area at your office and since I live in Marshall the next time I purchase something from you I will drive up, I would love to see it. Keep up the good work!

@Josh-pi8yd Год назад

Can't wait to see the final humidor with the big glass panel! I'm sure it will be one of a kind. Congratulations

@tomasb8986 9 месяцев назад

This is what a true passion and commitment to cigars looks like, well done Kirby, I would do the same

@BingoMactavanish Год назад

Great set-up Kirby. I use simple floor unit air purifiers and upgraded filters in the AC in the summer. During the cooler months its a window fan cross breeze. The humidor is going to be great- I would however reconsider the humidity level from 70 back down to 60-65.

@jankindling3001 Год назад

Kirby, lovely to see you in a french cuffed shirt! Suits the three piece suit much better, when worn in an urban surrounding❤

@Check.Your.Sources Год назад

Wow! If I ever come up with a couple worthy cigars, I’ll have to stop by. How epic is that filtration system. Someday I’d love to install something like that in my house, til then I’ll be stuck on my back porch… it’ll be interesting to see how the ventilation stands up to the smell of all that smoke over the next few years.

@Tony-uz4td Год назад

this is going to be amazing

@TheLycan238 Год назад

Kirby as always great video. It's fantastic to hear that you have set the bar so high for the standards of workmanship in your new walk in humidor and office. I look forward to the livestream or video of yourself, Eddie and Edward. Hopefully Eddie has his new bespoke suit for the occassion though I'm not sure that will be the case.

@Diablo12369 Год назад

Great AC duct conversation!

@pcroadwarrior78 Год назад

To answer your original question, Yes, you are nuts. But….for all the right reasons. I’m loving the suit and even more; I’m loving this side of you. I can sense the frustration with the contractors in your eyes and voice. Your videos are both entertaining and educational. Between you and the Sahakian’s, I learned how to enjoy a cigar either alone or with company. Davidoff # 2 and the Crand Cru are my favs. Keep up the great work, Kirby. You’re inspiring many!!

@kylewilliams7675 Год назад

I love your videos brother!!! Huge fan

@KimoKapaku Год назад

Cant wait to see your tour and collection Kirby! I had just missed you at the Davidoff lounge last month as I was there and met Edward and Eddie.

I'm in Texas, unfortunately on the other side of the state from you but if I'm ever out that way i will definitely see if you're around. It would be amazing to sit down with you and just pick your brain and enjoy a great smoke.

@HamiltonRb Год назад

You just gave me several reasons, as well as saved me thousands of dollars, and my sanity, for only smoking cigars outdoors

Huh Dallas, really. I assumed you lived in Europe, well from most of the content ive seen. I will definitely keep your shop in mind when im out traveling. It would be kewl to relax/chill an have a proper cigar with you. I really enjoy the channel, your an excellent host. And from what i have seen, i must say you have one of the best cigar channels on RU-vid! I hope to enjoy many more videos and hopefully one day shake your hand. Much respect Kirby

@nicholasalley7324 Год назад

Kirby, your sarcastic humor on why they didn't change the vents in the first place. Bummer, but glad you took it in stride. Gonna be great either way.

Kirby you will to find a new warehouse as you keep expanding your gentlemans club LOL .all kidding aside im glad all your hard work is paying off .I really enjoy you content and you serve as an inspiration to this 50 year old that is vary new to the gentlemans way of life thank you

@abakedslayermcgiles2703 Год назад

Kirby you’re truly inspirational! I am a fairly new comer to your channel and honestly love every video/series you have produced or are producing. Once your walk-in humidor is complete you should invite Eddie and Edward out for a visit.

@kakhabertukhashvili9367 Год назад

@404-Error-Not-Found Год назад

When you started telling the story about the vents, and you mentioned not wanting to deal with it, I thought to myself "they're just vents. Surely this isn't a large problem to be solved...." Wow, I don't think that could have been more of a pain.

@AlistairHig Год назад

Sounds like the needed to Balance the HVAC system correctly. They control the air flow so it's even amounts of CFM coming out of the vents. The wrapping on your duct in your house is mostly to stop condensation from the air temperature difference from outside air vs the air inside your home.

@jamesburke5374 Год назад

Not bothered about the cigars, just love looking at that suit 😍. That series was probably the favourite I’ve watched on your channel.

@williamproctor4388 Год назад

You have officially discouraged me from making a smoking room.🤣🤣🤣

@conversationswithcocoa Год назад

A lot of great information as I am embarking on a new house build and making a room for me to smoke it. Oh, and I've noted the invite to come and smoke.😊

@davekushman2363 11 месяцев назад

As a contractor I can tell you for sure the worst words to hear are “while you’re here” but based on your explanation it seems those hvac issues were pretty minor but definitely needed attention to get things running to the best of their abilities glad your contractor is able to take care of it for you

@VikingRacer Год назад

It's also very nice to see you in some much more adventurous gentalmans ware

@michaeltemple8333 Год назад

Suggestion. You should still wrap / seal the room so that any areas of truss, stud or any other material is sealed up. The foam itself is pretty tight but the wood studs and joists can still absorb / release moisture. Plastic sheeting and the proper tape is cheap and easily applied.

@michaeltemple8333 Год назад

my apologies, I added this comment before continuing with the video. The moisture resistant drywall will help. Make sure all the power receptacles and any other penetrations into the walls are sealed.

@wilfredz Год назад

I'm listening to this video and i'm just lmfao the whole time. This is firmly a case of Kirby measuring once of cutting twice rather than the reverse.

@kirbyallison Год назад

Certainly an element of trail and error here. Every decision was made with the best available information. But, sadly for me, the “best available” information has consistently been pretty terrible.

@dannyboi4111 Год назад

As an electrical engineer who works in building services alongside mechanical engineers, it is the utmost importance that a house with the facilities that you're installing are looked at by a mechanical engineer. Still not too late, I would get your plans looked at by an engineer before everything is on its final install!

@-Nobody-1 Год назад

Whats your specific worry?

@MrPirouz Год назад

@@-Nobody-1to engineer and design! Kirby wants so many things at the same time, and he is right, he wants the room air conditioned, be cleaned, don’t pollute the rest of home, be quiet, energy efficient and budget friendly. Most of the contractors in this business (if not all) can probably satisfy him in 2 or 3 of his wishes. A mechanical engineer, subject matter expert in air conditioning can find a solution for most if not all.

@BigFatTonys Год назад

Somebody is shoveling B.S. at you. Egg crate is a commodity item. It is bought in large sheets then cut to size. Large sheets in various colors are sitting in big stacks in every major city in the USA. The white, which you are using is the most common, largest stack. What you are calling "vents" are "diffusers." Diffusers have flow ratings for the whistling. Your system has a flow rate. The contractor should have known the original diffusers were going to whistle upon reviewing the plans, long before install. You should not be paying change orders for this additional work. You should get a negative change order for the difference between the louvered diffusers and the egg crate.

@tomace4898 Год назад

Let's see Paul Allen's walk-in humidor and home smoke filtration system...

@alt5494 Год назад

A cigar room is planning in depth not to play golf. Simply because if you're friends are not on the course they can not try to include you! Egg crate vents are not terrible, but you may actually want hexagon defusion vents. They greatly reduce turbulence in airflow remaining very quiet even at high CFM. Cheers

Why not have the air inlets at the bottom of the corners of the room, near the floor, so that the path of the air flow is literally bottom-to-top?

Construction limitations. Dripping air vents down the walls would have added significant complexity and cost.
