I have a 400 CF humidor. Will this unit be large enough for that room?

The SPT 12" misting fan with humidifier is not humidity controlled, it is controlled by a duration timer. This means that the fan and humidifier run as long as the time you set on the panel, to a max of 9-hours. The reservoir size for the humidifier runs empty in about 8-hours of continuous running. If you are looking for a device that will maintain a certain humidity, this is not the correct item.

I Think So... I've been using this fan in my bedroom and it works pretty good but a window fan is better. it circulates the air better plus it feels cooler. (P.S. I've Used only the regular fan on this, not the humidifier. Thanks for your question.

This unit will not humidify the area that it claims. It will handle two large rooms at best. If you have 1800 sqft I would recommend getting two units.

No, you should get as big a humidifier as reasonably possible. The "whole house" claim is exaggerated. I live in a 1000 square foot condo and the two units I've tried, including this one, struggle to keep the humidity at 35% on a dry day. That's fine for me, but I wouldn't want anything less. Besides, there's no real down side with a humidifier that's more than you need. It will just humidify your space to the desired level quicker and shut off, requiring less frequent fill-ups. The fan is loud on the higher settings, but you can keep it at low. In fact, I wouldn't even bother with this one. I got a slightly smaller Honeywell Quietcare that was quieter and worked more reliably than this one. No, you should get as big a humidifier as reasonably possible.

I am not an expert, but I would assume that the square footage depends on how much water is in the air. I have a relatively dry cellar and the 30 pint dehumidifier is adequate for my 24 x 32 foot cellar. I did not want a larger dehumidifier because I don't want something heavy to empty. 30 pints is about 30 pounds. Heavy enough for an old person.

you will have plenty of room - I have a 49 inch diagonally on the stand and have about a 1inch overhang on each sidethe unit is very easy to assemble and looks great from any view in the houseapprox. 7 inch and 10 inches between shelves for good storage of other equipmentI am sure you will enjoy this stand- I have the black unitgood luck

I don't think it will be sufficient for such a large area, it's a very good unit for smaller indoor spaces

Should do a good job. I added a fan above it so it would circulate quickly in my garage which is 450 sq foot. Never need it on high. I would insure there is some fresh air for the room for safety.

That 400 fan would work Perfert. That's what I have for about same size room. I hooked up a fan speed controller. That hydro fan is awesome!

No. Definitely not. If you're wanting something that adds a measurable amount of moisture to the air, get an actual humidifier. This diffuser is only about 6 inches tall, and outputs less than 1 cup of water over about 6-8 hours. I use it for aromatherapy and it sits on my desk at work. It's that small.

Yes, but with a few changes. The main unit is the same size but the humidistat/controller is smaller. The transformer is now separate (not built in) so you need to do a little extra wiring.

I think you would have room but you would need to buy more racks look further on amazon. By far the best smoker I have ever had.

I would say that would work quite well. These things are suppose to work up to 500 cubic feet and you probably will be using it in a room about 1176 cubic feet (assuming your ceiling height is 8 foot). If it doesn't buy another. They are inexpensive enough. That's what I am planning to do if need be

This humidifier is good Up To 2200 sq ft. That's in a best case scenario. I installed this in an 1800 sq ft house, and when the temp dips to 10 degrees, it barely makes an "acceptable" 35% humidity. That's in a well insulated house with double pane windows. Humidity seeks its own level. If your older home is not, or not well insisted, and does not have double pane windows, you will lose humidity almost as fast as you can put it in the air. At the very least, the next size up is better for 2000 sq ft., and with the worst cast scenario, something made for 3-4000 sq ft. May be needed, and that's IF your furnace can accommodate it. PS, the golden zone is 40 to 50% percent humidity. Below 40, viruses thrive; above 50, and mold thrives.

There is likely an engineered solution to this question if one wanted to spend enough time searching the web. Manufacturers websites contain some information, though it is fairly general. My approach was to pick a higher end price point where I got the maximum pints/dollar, being fairly sure that I would have enough capacity. Several factors influence the needed capacity: space volume, humidity in air entering the space, rate of air flow, and the level of humidity desired.

It would first depend on the square footage of your home. Either way I would not suggest this one. I would go back to a console and haul a bucket of water versus taking one or two containers provided to fill the humidifier up every morning. When you decide on one (larger version) you will notice a big change of moist air in your home.

I strongly doubt it, but if the total square footage is under approx. 1000sq/ft. and you place it on the upper floor, you may get some humidity improvement on the lower floor as well. I have retired mine since it was just not enough for the cost of operation. A few small humidifiers do a much better job for me and near zero maintenance. Wait until you change the filter the first time. It's a disgusting mess and about $20.00 a month plus bactericide.

No" not at all, as a matter of fact it can handle twice that size. Also keep in mind to place the unit where as to create an air flow that circulates around the room for greater efficiency keeping in mind it draws in air and blows out the back. This unit is Great!!
