how much water goes in the kuul unit when dry and how often do you have to refil when on high/high

Probably 3 gallons to start. I run it about 16 hours a day and it needs a gallon a day.

The frequency of refill is dependent on the relative humidity of the air going through the unit. Does not work well in humid climates, best in dry "desert" conditions then the cool air will be ~15 Deg cooler then ambient.

I've had the same basic question for some time now. It's surprisingly hard to find out how much water a specific machine uses, but you could try researching that first. (Personally I had no luck.) One estimate that's out there is that a typical front loader uses 15 gallons of water. I figure slightly more than half of that is for the (cold) rinse, meaning in a worst case scenario (cotton whites) you would need about 7 gallons of hot water. That said, most water heaters start delivering cooler (i.e., warm) water as they approach their capacity. In other words if you have a 10 gallon tank the temperature might start dropping off significantly after using only 8 or 9 gallons of water. So you (I) might be better off with 10 or even a 20 gallon tank. My problem with all these small "point of use" tank type heaters is that they are low power, which means easy electric hookup but really long recovery times in terms of gallons per hour. My advice for someone building from scratch and wanting point of use for a laundry room, even with a slop sink, would be a small tank-less heater. You could use a 30 amp unit like the Bosch AE7.2, have limitless hot water with zero recovery time and about the same up front cost, though you would have to run however many feet 10/2 wire (relatively cheap) and add a 30 amp 2-pole breaker, also cheap if you have the room in your electrical panel. I wish someone made a high-power (30 AMP 220V) small-tank (10-gal or less) heater, but so far I haven't been able to find anything like that. That would be the best of both worlds, since experience has shown that small tankless heaters can be finicky, delivering bursts of cold water, needing to be reset occasionally, and are extremely sensitive to changes in water pressure, which is a big factor if you live in certain areas or are on a well like me.

We're using the unit in a room that's about 420 SF, but it also has a 10 ft ceiling. I fill the unit up twice a day, about a gallon each time. We've had no problems with dry air symptoms although the humidity ranges from 32-42%. The unit is very quiet, particularly compared to our previous humidifier, and we've seen no white dust. We do use the recommended demineralization cartridge (Kaz DC-51) and the antimicrobial cleaning cartridge (Protec PC-1) to help with keeping the unit clean and because of our hard water.

When I refill it each night (and it does need refilled each night or it will be empty before morning) I typically put 4.5 gallons in it.

There are 2 large "filters" that water runs over, picking up moisture and is blown out the top. Right now I have the unit turned down about half way and it's putting a gal. and a half of water per day in the air. GREAT unit!!

I just purchased this unit about 2 months ago and I haven't had to empty it once! I opened it up last night to check again and not 1 drop. I leave it on 67 almost all day long! Some runs have been over 24 hours and not a drop. I live in southern California and I have a friend with this unit in Arizona and he said he has to empty his about once a month so it probably depends on the humidity.

It says it holds six gallons with a dry wick, so it's more like 5 1/2 when the wick is wet. The wick is quite large. I fill mine about every 2 days and my house is about 1,350 sq. ft.

Mine usually runs for 10-12 before I refill it. It's going to depend on the level of saturation you put it to.

About two liters. I add water as it gets to the minimum line and clean/refill once per week. With one cat and one small dog, I usually don't have to add more than once per week to keep it at the maximum line.

I'm guessing about 3 cups of water. It lasts thru the night on low. And it works well. I'm happy with it. Dry Arizona winters need humidifiers.

Depending on your program setup you will have 15 -20% on standby it will go into regeneration at your desired time. That's normally 2 or 3 in the morning when water usage is nill.

It's at least 1 gallon and I fill it in the mornings and it still has some left. I run on Medium or High. That's a good thing for me. Don't even turn it off when I refill.

Yes it can be refilled. I do not know how much water it took. It can also be emptied out and stored if needed. The instructions are on the Chillow and you should follow them.

My compressor is a 21gal. Unit and the line stays pretty dry. The adj regulator on the comp. works well and needs to . I blow out all debri and use 4 or 5 drops of lube per every couple hrs. Use, keep the air adjusted as needed for the size and type of nails. The Hitachi works well , but a water filter is not very costly. Type of use and care is always important.

I am in Arizona ... where the humidity is low. It usually lasts about 10-12 hours. I fill it up twice a day if I'm running it 24/7.

It holds exactly one gallon of water. One gallon will last between 2 and 5 depending on how much mist you use. To relieve the heat of a hot day, expect 2 hours before a refill.

It depends on where you live and how humid it is and how much you run the unit. If just a little water is collecting each day, I would think once a week would be enough. Do check it regularly..you do not want it to overflow.
