What type of humidifiers are in the El Rey and how often do you need to re-fill them?

It is the type of humidifiers you either soak in distilled water or humi fluid.It's kinda like that floral sponge meteralit depends on if your using distilled water or Glycol Solution but every couple weeks or when it starts to dry out (depends on how well the humidor was seasoned)id recommend getting a digital hygrometer and getting 72% boveda humi-packs (only have to change them out every two months or so)do some looking in to them they work great for me.

I use the a tube of propylene glycol and have to fill that about every other week. It's a pretty efficient humidor.

I use the disc kind and I put a couple of drops of stogies propylene glycol every other week and that does the job.

I have purchased two of these, one for each of my humidors. They are fantastic! Never had a problem. Use distiller water in them.

Not much water. Then again, no moisture comes out of the thing so if I were you I WOULD NOT BUY this product. Walgreens has awesome humidifiers that don't cost an arm and a leg.

Yes, a 50-50 mixture of propylene gylcol and distilled water is what most cigar stores typically sell as their humidification solution.

I bought mine from Amazon. Just type in uhe-oc1 and the humidifier will come up but also the filters. They are little oval blue things. I bought mine last year and had different filters that are round, can't find those so I'm now using the blue ones. Hope this helps.

My condo is about the same size as yours. The smaller the humidifier the more often you will have to fill it depending on what humidity percentage you set it at. The higher the setting the more often you have to fill it. This humidifier is good for the size and layout of my condo when it is working right.

Just remember, as with any humidifier, there will be some cleaning involved. No humidifier (that I know of) is completely maintenance free.Another big suggestion is to oil the bearings in the motor. This requires some mechanical skill and some light motor oil, but I have been running the same motors 24/7 for 6 years with no breakdowns. The only problem I have is with the finger gearbox thingy, which seems to just start stripping after about 2 years (took the first one apart to try to fix it; it is plastic and there is no fix); but I get free replacements from Venta, so no worries there...

Ya', I've found that they often take more than one tube, to get a humidor up to even close to 70% RH. I use two for my small travel humidor, which maybe can hold 20 cigars. For my main humidor, which holds about 75 cigars, I use the 70% RH Humidity Beads, which easily get you to where ya' wanna' be, and never over humidify. They merely have to be recharged with water every couple weeks (just like these tubes). This is a decent product, but again, I prefer the beads.

Yes. I have used this in our for the last year. I change them about once a month. Because we use our ultrasonic humidifier every night.

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.....Visol Products VAC700 Silver Humidifier for Medium/Large Cigar HumidorGood luck!

I'm asking myself the same question. Anyone know? What are its humidification features&gt;

These are THE best humidity solution. I keep them in my herfadors. Had one in a 5 stick for weeks.

I have a large humidor that holds over 100 cigars and need two of these Humidifiers.

yes, easy maintenance too! Best one on the market. I did a lot of research on humidifiers because I'm a new mom. This saves you money because it does not blow out a warm mist. The warm mist humidifiers cost more money because the water has to heat up and it has mold issues. I've been through it all.

first and foremost I think you need to read the manual that came with the humidifier.you'll definitely need the EZCAL cleaner/descaler packets, and hydro cells, water maintenance system. The last item you need is an Ag+ ionic silver demineralization cartridge. Read and follow all the instructions.

I have used my MIU every night for three months now. I live in the U.S. and use my regular (very hard) tap water (and add a few drops of lavendar essential oil to it). I previously tried using four regular humidifiers the same way but not one lasted more than a few days. With my previous humidifiers I had layers of that white dust in my bedroom, especially on mirrors. With this unit I have absolutly none. I love it so much I purchased one as a gift for a friend.
