    Re: Humidifier

    In my snake room, the warm mist and cool-mist type of humidifers left a white film on my glass doors and such. I went with an evaporative type of humidifier and all is well.

    I bought a hunter evaporative type that has a humidistat (that I leave at 50%) and it makes the room just about perfect.

    Ooh, that sounds cool, especially one with it's own humidistat. Any recc's on where to buy something like that?

    So warm over cool is the consensus? My room is at like 30% right now (partly because of the uro tank in there which is moving out shortly). I might have to pick one of these up.

    Re: Humidifier

    I think I need a nuclear powered humidifier. Curent snake room stats.. 29% humidity and 81 degrees on the cool side of the room. I used our old humidifier a few months ago, but it took the humidity from 26% to a whopping 35%.. I need something better. I've taken to upping humidity in individual cages now.

    Re: Humidifier

    That sounds like a good one.. have you tried it? Can I get replacement filters from that site?

    Re: Humidifier

    no i haven't but it is designed for larger rooms or whole house 1700 sq. ft. alot of people use this console type in larger areas. my room is only 10x10 , so a small one works fine for me!

    you can probably go to a lowes/home depot and find large console type ones and their filters there.
