[sissy]

I need to raise mine so just looking for a humidifier .He said cool air ones are better than warm mist ones ,not sure why forgot to ask him after he showed me all the burned wires and stuff .

No thanks to being there @callingcolleen1 What a mess!

 

[j.w]

We just put a pot of water on the wood stove and call it good.

 

[Lisak1]

We do the same - boil a pot of water when it gets too dry. We have a whole house humidifier but on really cold days it can't always keep up. Our smoke alarms are all wired in and when it gets too dry they all start beeping and it drives the dogs INSANE!

 

[j.w]

Really on the dryness doing that to the alarms @Lisak1 ? Did not know that would happen. Poor dogs and it drives me nuts when one smoke alarm beeps and then you have to hunt it down to find exactly which one it is! It will stop beeping and then start up again when you get tired of waiting for it to beep again and leave. I swear they are living beings and they are messin w/me!

 

[Lisak1]

Yup. We finally had to call the fire department one year to ask for help to figure out the problem. They clued us in that the static electricity caused by the dry air could set them off. Once we solved the mystery we never had another problem.

Got this video that was shot yesterday of the Frazer Canyon highway in BC Canada.... sure would not want to be stuck in that big mess! Get the Chains out!!!

I've driven the Fraser Canyon in conditions like that before.
You really learn to curse the people that insist "All Weather tires are good enough!"

My smoke alarms are wired in and never had that problem .I wonder if my air is drier because of there being a basement .When I had this heat pump put in I had no problem at first with dry air ,humidity was always fine .Now that has changed .I did have the duct work all sealed and inspected when the new heat pump was put in .I figured it was free so have it done at the same time .

 

[sissy]

I bought one of these a couple of weeks ago and I love it ,cool mist and add a little aroma therapy oils and it is great .less than 16 dollars with free shipping on ebay .Thinking of getting another one .It was a california sellar so wondering if it is still available from him .You can turn the top piece different ways .I also does different color lights or just blue

 

[addy1]

[sissy]
