Does it increase humidity in the room?

Yes. All evaporative air coolers will increase humidity. They work best in environments with low humidity such as in Colorado and Arizona.

of course. that is how evaporative coolers work. if you don't want that you need a refrigeration unit (and a vent to the outside)

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.

If you are in air conditioned room, and humidity not to high, not a problem. I have not had any problems under these conditions.

Yes it can. I've paired mines with the moisture switch. I haven't got the bathroom to a high humidity yet to have it automatically turn on, but I've tested it and it works as promised.

Yes it does. Also dont trust the built in hygrometer. Buy a digital one to keep inside. Also recommend using the hydrating gel packs or tubes instead of the ones that come with it.

You only see it a few feet, but with the ceiling fan on, my humidity meter about 15 feet away in another room measured 7% higher humidity after about 6 hours of day use. After the overnight with it off, went back down 6 percent, so to keep the levels up, you might have to run it pretty continuously. That said our house is dry, we run a large fireplace insert. I've heard once you get more humidity in the house for a couple weeks it's easier to maintain, I think the floors walls furniture etc absorb some water over time if they are dry.

no, to prevent the humidity, you could open window or let the door open to make sure the room is vented properly. I sometime put a glass of water in front of the heater to have the moisture in the room

You cannot adjust the humidity level, but we have found if we keep the tank full the air doesn't dry out.

Yes and it also will circulate the air in the room. Moving air always makes you cooler.

There is not a specific humidity level the unit is set to. It runs continuously to remove any moisture within the designated area.

Can this unit be used in a bathroom which includes a shower (and thus a certain amount of humidity)?
1708539
No, just HVAC. This unit not designed to control humidity. Hope this helps!
506565
No, you can not adjust the humidity level. There is a sensor in the unit that sets the humidity output based on temperature and the amount of humidity already in the air.

I honestly cannot recommend buying this unit. There was no improvement to the level of humidity in my walk in closet. Save your money.

According to the research we've done with the manufacturer, this unit does NOT have humidity control, just temperature control. Thank you for looking and asking. If you have any more questions, please don't hesitate to ask.

Sorry, but no. These will increase the humidity through the evaporation of the water used in cooling. Useful only in dry conditions.

It will raise humidity from 25 to 38 in about 10hours in my room that's about 330 sq ft.It's not noisy.I don't have any white dust.
