Humidification Types

Select ultrasonic, evaporative or electrode operation

Ultrasonic models provide cool mist, with one model offering cool or warm mist. Several ultrasonic units offer adjustable mist levels, and some include whole-room coverage ratings or built-in humidistats. Evaporative models add moisture through natural evaporation without producing mist or white dust. The electrode humidifier is intended for integration with an installed HVAC system and uses digital humidity control.

  • Ultrasonic options include tabletop, cool-mist, whole-room and cool/warm mist designs.
  • Evaporative options use natural evaporation and are represented with coverage up to 750 square feet.
  • The electrode model provides 11 GPD at 120V or 22 GPD at 240V.
Coverage, Output and Water Capacity

Size the unit around the area and refill routine

For room units, use the stated coverage rating to compare models. Available whole-room humidifiers are represented for spaces up to 300, 400, 500, 600, 700, 750 and 900 square feet. Tank sizes range from 0.5 gallon to 1.75 gallons among listed models, while other units use a 4-liter tank, a 95-ounce tank or dual tanks. Runtime and output vary by model and setting.
