Jesus, how'd you finagle that?! Heat pump?

Take meticulous care of the humidifier They can do good or harm depending on how well cared for they are. Super dry winter air is not good for you.

I havent touched the thing, I really dont know if it works or not. I picked up a few small portable humidifiers this winter. A little tedious filling them with water but they work and my hands arent as crusty as usual.

Had a humidifier leak earlier in the winter so I disabled it until I could troubleshoot/ fix. Man, did that wreak havoc with some of the wood trim and flooring! A new filter and a cleaning took care of the leak. I had no clue about the needed maintenance, and none of the HVAC servicing I'd had done over the years included anyone opening up the unit. Until it started leaking I had no clue about the opening it up, performing maintenance, etc. Kinda like the condensate pump that no one looked at/ serviced for years until it stopped working and I had to troubleshoot. Seems like the typical once-a-year servicing by the HVAC guys often is just cleaning filters, vacuuming coils and cleaning out the exterior unit.

I have an air mover-mounted humidifier and absolutely love it. I have humidity gauges at various locations around the house to help ensure I'm in the range. I am very sensitive to the low-humidity winter air and this sucker was a godsend. The little portable jobbies just couldn't keep up.
