How can I measure humidifying capacity in square feet, when the area covered has three dimensions. Will this humidify 700 cubic feet??

I sure hope so. The humidifier specs say it is good for up to a 700 square foot room. Such a room with a one foot ceiling height would have 700 cubic feet volume. More typical ceiling heights are 7, 8, or even 10 feet. Those ceiling heights would be 4900 cubic feet, 5600 cubic feet, and 7000 cubic feet respectively.

Yes - I think you may have to step up to a larger unit. My space is a similar size, and now that warmer more humid weather has arrived, the unit is running almost full time to maintain 50% humidity. Although the unit is very quiet compared to other units I have owned, it still may be a bit annoying in certain circumstances (e.g. viewing TV in the area).

80 sq. ft. is tiny, I've had cubicles bigger than that! I've used it in a 400 sq. ft. room and it works great.

The ceiling opening is 10"x10". It fits in between standard 16" on center joists. We love the humidity controlled feature. Why aren't all units like this? Just makes sense.

The correct answer is; it depends on your CUBIC footage, not your square footage. Multiply your height x length and width to get your cubic footage. This device is rated for 1,100 cubic feet. Your camper has 26 x 8 or 208 square feet. Now add your ceiling height. If your ceilings are 6 feet tall, then your total cubic footage is 1,248 cubic feet, more than this device is rated for. You would need 2 devices or the next size up to get proper drying.

The web site states 4000 cubic feet. We are using ours on a 44' sailboat in the NW. Works great, brings the humidity down to about 50% in a few hours of running.

Hard to say about the size...500? There is a gauge that lets you adjust the amount of mist, you could crank it to high & move it about the room for the 1st couple days. Once the room is humidified a bit it might be big enough (unless you have radiators for heat then i would think 2 machines would be the least you'd want). I've noticed no white dust and have used this every winter for several years.

The correct answer is; it depends on your CUBIC footage, not your square footage. Multiply your height x length and width to get your cubic footage. This device is rated for 1,100 cubic feet. If your room is, say, 10 feet by 20 feet, that's 200 square feet. Now add your ceiling height. If your ceilings are 7 feet tall, then your total cubic footage is 1,400 cubic feet, more than this device is rated for. You would need 2 devices or the next size up to get proper drying.

I use three of them in addition to the humidifier that came with my humidor. I try to obtain 70% humidity..... With that being said, I was given a larger humidor recently. The humidifier that came with it plus the three drymistat humidifiers would only raise the humidity to 62%. So, I ordered yesterday this in hopes it will help raise the humidity..... http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000PUWHJC/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s02?ie=UTF8&psc=1 Good luck!

I haven't measured the humidity in various parts of the room. The mist definitely dissipates within a 3 foot radius, but it still likely has humidifying effects beyond that. It will depend on the size of your room as to how much the total humidity is affected. This product works well for me because I'm just trying to get some relief when I sleep. I pull it up fairly close to my bed, point it at my head and I can feel the difference. It doesn't make anything wet though which is good.

in my opinion it has no area effectiveness. I used it standard size bedroom for some 10 hours with no difference between the bedroom and the hallway. there was barely any water in the tank after two attempts to gauge it's worth. it is now back in the box. the intake and output fans are weak if it can't bring air in it can't remove humidity.

Sorry, but I haven't tried the humidifier yet. Heater capacity in a larger room is disappointing

Depends - I covered over 5000 square feet. Also it continues to fill in and get thicker every year after.

I get approximately 4.4 cubic feet. It' a little difficult to do a precise measurement.

I am pretty sure that is in the specs for that unit. I did not look it up but remember it to be over 2,000 sq feet. Those numbers are 'averaged' so it really depends more on how much moisture enters the space. In the more humid months in northern Michigan summers it filled to the shut off point every 24 four hours in my finished basement. That is a lot of water. Once it was brought down it did not run continually and filled every 2 days or so. A very nice unit and one of the most quiet I have heard.

I am in Colorado, pretty dry here. I am not sure how well it would work in a humid area. It doea not freeze out my daughters room and hers is 100 sq ft. It just makes it cool. I would not get this one if your area is much larger than that.

This unit is underpowered for any reasonable size space -- when they say 1,000 ft sq, they mean 1,000 cubic ft or about a 12x10x8 room, on full power. If it is the only unit on the circuit, get it serviced.
