have an insulated tank installed or get a tank insulating kit. You can use a mixing valve but it is something you probably can't install yourself.

Might be caused by too much difference between the temp of water and its surrounding. Try bringing in some heat around the toilet area in winter and don't crank up the AC too high in summer.
Reply:Stop making it run. ha,ha,ha Just kidding,sorry I couldn't resist.
Reply:You can't. It sweats for the same reason as does a glass of cold water, and you can't stop that, either.
Reply:they make kits that will warm the water that flows to the tank, to temper the cold water. i have seen them on this old house, the plumber installed one on a show. check their web site, i don't recall the name of it, but that is where i saw it. good luck, hope this helps.
Reply:either heat the tank


or line the floor with something





or insulate the inside of the tank
Reply:A Styrofoam insulated tank should work well for you in warm and cold temps. I have two in my home and neither one sweats.
Reply:it sweats due to the temp difference. you either need to get the water closer to the room temp or the room temp closer to water temp
Reply:You don't need a plumber or even any tools to install an insulation kit in your tank, and it's cheap. The obvious answer is humidity and not temperature. If you could remove the humidity from the bathroom, the result would be the same as heating the toilet water, and make a lot more sense. If you don't have an exhaust fan to run after running hot water for an extended time, think about installing one. If you do have one check to make sure that the vent to the exterior is clear. A birds nest or a crimped tubing could be trapping the humidity inside the room.
