In the summer our house is 88F and 77% + humidity, will this work?

I have not had any problem with rancid butter. There are only two of us who use it daily and it stay fresh and soft.

I don't see why not. Just change water frequently and I definetly recommend a tiny sprinkle of salt in each water change.

Our house gets pretty darn hot . We are in the desert. I would change the water daily and give it a try . It has to he better than leaving it out.

I place my keeper in the refrigerator when I know my house is going to be to warm, and take it out first thing, otherwise the butter does warm and slips into the water which is no big deal. I live in the lower south so we have humidity issues!

I have had a lot of luck with keeping my unit on low then moving it up to medium. I have the unit in a room and not in an open area. Our house usually starts at 35% humidity and I set it to go to 45% to 50% and it usually gets there within a couple hours.

This works on air temp. So it works best if you can put the thermostat out from under your house

I use this unit in attic space with little insulation which is roughly 300 sq ft. On very hot humid days it can bring temps in room to mid 70s.

Yes...no reason it wouldn't. There are more than one 600 model. If you are in a colder climate I would recommend the 600 A model. This model can activate the furnace blower fan (without the heat coming on) whenever the humidity dips below your selected level and it does so even if the furnace isn't calling for heat. There is a sensor that is wired through an exterior wall so that the humidifier gives the the proper amount of humidity relative to the outside temperature. It's great to be able to keep the humidity high enough so that hardwood floors don't dry out and separate and it's better for furniture and for health too, without going too high so that your windows end up all frosted up

I don't know but expect it will work. I've measured from 20-212 F and seems to be reasonably accurate. I have an Everstar small portable room air conditioner. Reads 52 coming out and the tube for exhaust reads 105. Currently it is hot and humid outside. Price is right.

All climates have humidity, some less than others. There is a valve in the back that you can put a 3/8" hose (included) to do what little draining might be necessary.

Yes it will. I don't know if you have access to any air conditioning whether it be down stairs or what, but by placing the fan toward the bedroom it will draw the cooler air up to the room. I have 2 fans of these to keep a 3 BR 1 1/2 bath cool in high humidity and high heat. I LOVE mine!!!!!!. They are not noisy either, but you can change the fan speed to what is comfortable for you. I wish you the best. I gave these fans a 5 star and will buy again. God Bless!

I think it breathes well enough. I'm comfortable with just this and a sheet and we keep our house between 70-74 degrees F.

It don't need it, but it will help to keep a more full, even heat in the home. Just like in the summer time when humidity raises the heat index. You don't need to make it feel like Florida in July, but a little humidity, 55% to 65% will give a more efficient heating effect, in contrast to that dry empty chilly feeling you can't get rid of without cranking up your conventional heating system. The water molecules in the air become heated up and hold in the heat from floor to ceiling. A small humidifier or setting several containers of water around the house should help.

I am sure it depends on the weather where you live. I have had no problems, but I live in No Cal and it is not humid here.

I don't know why it wouldn't. You set the temp and humidity to whatever you need. BUT, be aware that in the U.S. at least, they not only don't honor their warranty but you can't buy most replacement parts to fix it yourself. Its great for as long as it works.

It doesn't work that way. I have already put my away for the season but as I recall, you have a low medium and high setting. Sure to put towels or papers around floor if you're going leave it on that high. As I recall, the usual humidity for indoors in the winter is 15 to 20%. Getting it getting at or above 20% is good. 50% is Darn nesr perfect. To get it at or about 50%, you will probably need two or three humidifiers running at full blast. If you're able to get the this high or higher be careful with mold and mildew though this would be unlikely in the winter. Hope this helps. I keep a small hydrometer in my bedroom and the living area to measure the humitidy. It doesn't work that way.

I would recomend it. The one I have works well. Temp is accurate within a deg or two as far as I can tell and the humidity is pretty much spot on.

I believe so, but it didn't work for my room. Even though I kept it by an open door, my room still got super humid. But I might have been too far away still.

An air cooler would not be effective in a humid environment since its effectiveness comes from the air being dry. You should go for an air conditioner instead other wise you wont be feeling cool

I can not answer the question as I live in Austin, TX. My unit is installed inside the home that has an annual temperature variation from 68 degrees in the winter to 80 degrees in the summer. The unit has functioned flawlessly since I installed it. I am very happy with the unit. My original unit lasted 12 years plus.
