    Anything subzero totally cleans out any reminants of moisture in the air. Keeping them at 60 is a challange at times. I've found moving them to the basement helps quite a bit.

    ...and then in July it will be so humid, I'll have to seal my humidors to prevent them from moving to rh's over 80%!!
    I used to take the South Shore to the Art Institute stop and walk up Jackson to the Sears Tower (yeah I know they changed the name, but its still the Sears Tower) when I was doing contract IT work. Growing up in northwest Indiana, I know how cold and dry it gets, but when its 0% RH and 137 degrees out in the summer, or 0% RH and 27 degrees like it was on Sunday, we get nose bleeds and we aren't even in the cheap seats.

    I think we get less than 3 inches of rain a year here in south central Iraq.

    One more stupid question guys. I just got my beads today, so me wanting to add humidity I should add distilled water. Would water from a water bottle work? Since I know tap won't work and I don't feel like running to the grocery store to buy a gallon of distilled water. Thanks!

    I believe heartfelt strongly recommends distilled. Bottled water isn't distilled.
