Humidifier -Compressor or Dessicant

FrankPoll. · 2019-09-23 08:59:42

I'm thinking of getting the meaco 20l compressor model for the 3 bed house The compressor is more reliable and I believe they are more efficient down to about 10-15c I've done what I can with heat , ventilation and extraction What are peoples thoughts having purchased the larger units?

I would go for a compressor type, preferably with a manual humidistat like this Dimplex.

I have had the electronics fail on the timer models, also they tend to have a fan running constantly, where the basic one cuts in and out like a fridge.

We had a dessicant unit as well but it failed after about three years. I think dust is the killer.
