Ugh, thanks for sharing this. I hate it.
My single-car garage is probably better sealed than what you're describing of yours, but it's not the same as an enclosed room by a long shot. I don't know how people do strenuous riding inside the finished part of a house... no matter how many fans I point at myself, I always leave a truly disgusting amount of sweat in my wake. I see photos of people's zwift setup in the living room with a modest-sized mat under them and I can't even imagine how disastrously that would go down for me.
