Electronic Humidifier

If you're refilling the reservoir every month, then I'd suspect that your humi has a huge leak.

If you're refilling the reservoir every month, then I'd suspect that your humi has a huge leak.

I did do a light test when I first got it after confirming the lid seals properly and I could see no light coming out of the humi with the lid closed and lights off in the room. That's not a guarantee mind you, but it's fairly indicative. The flashlight I stuck inside it is pretty powerful too so it wasn't a lack of light. I did tape (with painters type masking tape) some black garbage bags over the glass.

Also, my Hyrda is the small one and it's bone dry here year round. Especially so in the dead of winter.

You guys living near big water have no idea how dry it is here on the prairies (year round). I remember living in Vancouver back in 91/92, when I left there I moved to SK and I can clearly remember the feeling of moisture being sucked out of my skin after crossing the Rockies. Somewhere around Calgary if memory serves me I noticed my skin getting very dry and patchy. On the plus side, the mold and mildew that had been growing on me finally died off..........I dunno how you guys can stand that humidity all the time..........LOL

Anyhow, it didn't seem to me to be needing to be refilled too often........but I have nothing to compare it against. Maybe I need to do the light test again...
