from www.amazon.com
for a couple of years we used a wick-and-fan humidifier that had plenty of capacity and ran quietly.
from www.amazon.com
i guess that's so, but, it's quite nicely sized for homes smaller than that because it won't have to run on high to do the job.
from www.amazon.com
that's enough to get a full night's sleep.
from www.amazon.com
we feel warmer, the children cough less while sleeping, there's no static electric sparks when we touch objects or each other ...
from www.amazon.com
when i think i will install a furnace mounted unit i search the internet and read the reviews and realize why i put up with this lasko cleaning routine.

not too loud for a warm mist humidifier and it doesn't make the irregular "glug, glug, glug" sounds like humidifiers with inverted tanks.
from www.amazon.com
on the other side, i found it a bit noisy sometimes, but nothing that will prevent you from sleeping.
from www.amazon.com
i love the fact that there's no removable tank to refill, love the carrying handle (my daughter brings the empty humidifier downstairs each morning), love the magnetic power cord.
from www.amazon.com
it is easy to use, does the job superbly, and -- most importantly -- is super-easy to clean.
from www.amazon.com
what sets this humidifier apart from the competition, besides the price, is the ease of use, solid structure, and durability.

the humidifier works great, but it gives more sounds..
from www.newegg.com
(not that big of a deal) other thoughts: great product.
from www.amazon.com
hcm-6009 is very quiet unless you have to turn it up to half-speed or greater, in which case it is about as noisy as a typical hotel air-conditioning unit and therefore somewhat disruptive to sleep.
from www.amazon.com
here is another noise issue- when it starts getting empty, a loud humm starts up.
from www.amazon.com
this machine is very quiet relative to the amount of humidity that it puts out (hence the filter enclosure is correspondingly more humid, and tends toward mold more easily).

i did replace the water supply line which came with the new humidifier and had to cut a larger hole in the plenum and smaller hole in the return air supply for the humidistat.
from www.amazon.com
i installed the unit myself, first time cutting into duct work.
from www.amazon.com
must install the humdifier controller in the return duct upstream from the fresh air intake which required rerouting my fresh air intake.
from www.amazon.com
however, the installation took a little bit longer than that was suggested on the video.
from www.amazon.com
Best price I could find.
