I imagine it could if you have them cranked up all the way and leave them on all the time.

We never run ours on high and only use them in the evening. That is all we need to ensure the house isn't as dry as an eraser.

We once made the mistake of leaving 2 of them on all day. When we came home and walked in the door, it was like walking into Portland after a rain storm during the heat of a steamy August day. There was actually dew on the windows.

If you just run it on low for a few hours that is all you need.

Re: humidifier

no..I wouldn't run it for long either, just enough to alleviate symptoms [img]/forums/images/graemlins/70409-waytogo.gif[/img]

Re: humidifier

If you go to Radio Shack you should be able to purchase a digital hygrometer. These tend to be a lot more accurate than the old fashioned ones when it comes to reading the amount of humidity in your home.

If you keep your humidity between 30 - 50 % you should be fine as far as mold goes. Anything below 30% will be too dry.

Re: humidifier

I have them, too, in each bedroom and office. They came with there own little thingers, too, to tell you levels in the room. Sorry, tired. Will check brand etc, tomorrow. Well worth it! Cool better than warm has to do with bacteria I think, although I still use the hot one for illness (with Vicks).
