Do you have to put a water tray onto to keep moisture in the air to sleep?

We have two heaters - one with humidifier water bottle feature, one without - never have had problem sleeping using either one. We don't usually use the humidifier although it seems to work fine when we have used it.

This is up to you, Mary, since the heater doesn't have a water tray to add moisture to the air. I use a humidifier myself, to put moisture into the air for the comfort of people and for the plants too. I think you need a humidifier, with this machine, in a residential living area, anyway. I've used a Vornado machine for years - I clean the washable filter at the beginning of the season and it works fine, here's a link to it, but they are many humidifiers with good feedback, that I see on Amazon, that are lower in price. http://www.amazon.com/Vornado-Evap40-4-Gallon-Evaporative-Humidifier/dp/B00O0WOO74/ref=sr_1_6?s=appliances&ie=UTF8&qid=1421788079&sr=1-6&keywords=vornado+humidifier&pebp=1421788166683&peasin=B00O0WOO74

No you can't. I think the optimal humidity level is already set in the machine. I have used it for over a month now. When it is relatively warm and the heating system does nmt get turned on often, the water in the storage doesn't get used much. When the night is cold and the heat turns on, water gets used up quicker. I am happy with the humidifier; it seems to help with my scratchy throat problem.

Needs a roll-up tray. The trays which come with the unit are porous for even drying. I have never attempted.

No, as with most caddies you put in wet towels and they stay steamed. there is a water tray to collect condensation on the bottom you dump out as needed during the day.

No, but make sure you keep an eye on the water level. Also, make sure the surface you place the incubator won't be disturbed, and any condensation can be wiped up. It works great by the way.

Although not required to be functional, in our case, the unit was elevated to maximize the vapor flow over the face of the user (head & neck radiation patient). Yes, there is excess moisture from the unit when in the maximum position and recommend that a waterproof pad be placed around it especially toward the vapordirection...something like a bed pad.

No, there is no water produced. I still have no problems at all with this unit. (UPDATE: SorryI have used it only as an air conditioner to cool, and wasn't aware it had a drip tray. Our humidity is very low, seldom above 20% so I suppose not much or any water is produced.)

Putting a tray of ice behind a fan does nothing more than create a puddle on whatever surface you place the ice tray on. If you want your air cooled, you will need an a/c unit, period. Btw, I suggest not dripping any liquids on your fan.

Most foam mattress manufacturers recommend that you have wooden slats or a metal foundation that allows your mattress to breath and eliminate any water or sweat that might get into the mattress pad. One memory foam manufacturer says that if you want to add a plywood base on top of your metal frame or existing box spring that you put 1" holes every six inches beneath the areas you sleep on to make sure the mattress is able to breath properly and not get moldy or damaged from excessive dampness.

Place a few drops of water between the mat and the metal tray. Rub the mat back and forth on the mat to create a seal. It should stay in place for you.

Always place humidifier on a firm, flat, level surface. A waterproof mat or pad is recommended for use under the humidifier. We do not recommend placing it on a rug or carpet, or on a finished floor.

No. They have a screw on top, not the push on ones with the plastic. I have both, and they both keep the tea "moisture free."

No, each tray is a part of the unit. You can use less trays and it reduces the total height, but there are no tray "inserts" so you can't dry items larger than the tray height. The very top tray is a bit larger than the rest and where I put the largest items (still not a great deal more, but useful.)

Since it adjusts to your body it works either way you sleep. The firmness depends on how much water you put in it and can be adjusted at any time. Just be sure to get all the air out just as in the days of water beds. I've read some say that the water sloshes but I've never had that issue. My daughter is about to get one also.

Hi Sarah, I sleep with water side down. I'm still playing with the water level and have increased the water level by 2 cups.Kathy

Not sure you would want to. Comfortable to sleep on but needs to have air added everyday. Loses air throughout the night. Just a little but noticeable in the morning.

yes but very minimal. It does increase the moisture in the air. We love ours. Good luck.
