Classic,
In the summer it is a lot cooler than the outside, and usually damper all year round. In summer it is from 75-95 outside w/ humidity between 60%-100%. The cellar is usually 10 to 15 degrees cooler and the humidity is about 5% greater than outside. Winter time it is more constant at about 55 to 60 degrees with humidity at 50%.

The boiler helps a bit in the winter and adds only a marginal amount of heat in the summer since it makes our domestic HW.

I wonder what it would be if it were isolated from the house with insulation in the floor.
