It’s big and it’s boxy, but this hefty humidifier is designed to humidify your entire house--up to 1,700 square feet. The humidifier’s evaporative system utilizes unheated, natural, evaporated water, which requires significantly less energy than warm mist or steam units. Other benefits of the evaporative system include: no white dust, spray, or mist deposits on furniture or floors; it prevents skin, eyes, plants, and furniture from becoming overly dry; by reducing static electricity in the air, it protects computers and electronics. This humidifier’s water reservoir holds and disperses up to 8 gallons of water per day into the air, and refills easily and neatly. Cleaning the rest of the appliance is just as simple: the power unit lifts off the top of the humidifier for easy cleaning and servicing, and the evaporative wick, which filters out mineral deposits, also lifts out for replacing. A variety of settings on the humidistat dial allow you to select your preferred humidity. The humidistat automatically turns itself on and off to maintain the set humidity level. Also, the humidifier’s fan offers two settings--low and high. The unit functions without any pulleys, belts, or wheels, making its operation fairly quiet. The humidifier measures 18 by 12-1/2 by 21 inches, with casters on the base so it easily rolls from room to room. Bemis covers this unit under a one-year limited warranty. --Cristina Vaamonde

I've tried many smaller units that should have kept my two room apt. (according to claims) here in the remote northeast satisfactorily humid, i.e. 35% or so. None of them did; in fact they all sent the gauge to unreadably low levels, below 20%. This Bemis 800 space saver keeps humidty at about 40% for at least 2 months, after which the it slowly declines as the wick deteriorates. I replaced the wick for the first time this winter on Jan 22. Not bad. Seems as if it will be a two wick winter.
As to noise. I keep the Bemis on low, and it runs 24/24 during the driest months. It is quieter than any of the other units I've used. It's not silent but it is certainly not disturbingly loud. I'm picky about noise and humidity as I play guitars. I've never turned it on high so I can't comment on the noise at that setting. I fill it once a day with about 4 gallons of water. It comes with a 3 or 4 foot hose that attaches to a sink...Read more 9 of 9 people found the following review helpful:  Great little humidifier, This review is from: Essick Air 826-800 2-Speed Evaporative Console Humidifier (Kitchen) I use it on the lowest setting and cannot hear it at all.
If you do not purchase bacteria inhibitor, the wick will grow mold in just a few days, so stock up on that too. There was no mention of it when I purchased it and was very disappointed. It's not a very well made machine, and the display no longer works after one year, but it does the job and is certainly a great value for the price. 9 of 9 people found the following review helpful: Humidifier, This review is from: Essick Air 826-800 2-Speed Evaporative Console Humidifier (Kitchen) I just received this humidifier a few days ago. Setting it up is a cinch. Filling it up takes a while-- many trips from the sink to the unit. I found that so far, the humidity in our home is just right. We keep in on the low setting- The low setting is very quiet and the high is quite loud. I must warn you, however, that the first few days of the humidifier running gives off a very strong/powerful Sharpie marker-type smell. We woke up the first few mornings with that taste even in our mouths! I called the customer service line and they said it was normal-- that it should go away in a few days. That it just needs to run it's course to get the industrial smell off of it. It's now 4 days later and it indeed is much less smell-able. |
