Any idea whether the tank is BPA lined like warm mist humidifiers?

Both tank and lid are 2 layers, but I have no idea if the inside layer is BPA approved. The inside layer is smooth, whereas the outside is textured, but I'm sure that is for gripping purposes. Sorry I can't be of more help. If it was BPA approved though, wouldn't they mention that in the description?

Yes, it is a humidifier. Proper humidity level being important for the mucous, breathing.And it looks cool!

The casing of the filters are plastic. The tank is stainless steel. I think that the plastic is safe because it has to endure high pressure. I believe that the tank is the most important part. You will be using the water int he tank first

To the best of my knowledge it is BPA free. I use 2 of these bottles to store water for my fish tank. I empty 1/3 of my fish water every 4 weeks. My fish are very fragil fish and the water has to be at the right ph for them to survive. Every time I empty the tank I refill the bottles with filtered water and let it stand until the next time I have to replace the water and so far the fish are doing fine.

No this is not a warm mist humidifier. It is a cool mist humidifier I use with essential oils.

My humidifier has none of those problems, so you must have a defective unit. The only drawback I've experienced is when I fill the tank and put it back in the unit, and the bottom of the tank snags on the filter. I have to help the tank get into place past the filter, but everything works fine after that.

Vapor is caused by water being heated and it in turn turns to the gas state(vapor) so no the vapor is warm. If you're looking for a cool mist you want a humidifier.

If it is, I haven't heard anything. As far as my experience goes, this humidifier is awesome. I haven't had any problems with it.

I've only used the warm mist and I fill both tanks up every night before going to bed. There's usually a small amount of water still in each tank.

I don't have answer for this question. But I should let you know that this one was broken within two months. Then I had to buy another humidifier.

Is the tank full? If yes, it is time to change the water filter. To troubleshoot: remove the water filter (it unscrews from the tank lid) and try without the filter. If it works fine the filter is clogged and needs to be replaced. These filters become slower with time and after a few months of heavy use they don't let through enough water to keep up with the needs of the humidifier. This year, I had two of those filters be bad right out of the package (they did not let through enough water even when new) and I had to exchange them for new ones (thanks Amazon for making this so easy!). By the way: it is perfectly fine to operate the humidifier without the filter, at least temporarily, but there is more white dust on all surfaces when there is no filter installed and the silver ions in the filter keep the tank from getting all slimy and stinky.

I live in Tennessee and condensation is not an issue. But Amazon does sell "American Standard 4266.504.020" which does have an insulated tank.

I looked in the manual and it does not say. It does not say on the humidifier either. I just assumed that it came from the US since the company is here.

I use in my Vick's cool mist humidifier that is filterless. I drop in the water tank. No problem with dropping in or removing to change.Can always call the manufacturer to check too.

Mine looks like the picture but mine is not digital. Mine does keep a certain humidity level in the house depending on where I set the dial. A red light comes on when the tank is empty. I have used this for the last five years and so :-) of buy another if it goes out.

The tank is made of a plastic pvc type material, which doesn't sweat like a porcelain china toilet tank. Have never had an issue with sweating.
