Humidifiers
Quiet bedroom humidifiers, compared on tank size, runtime and price.
Tank size sets the runtime, so a small tank means refilling every night. Ultrasonic units are quiet, which is what you want beside a bed, but they mist minerals into the room, so distilled water or a demineralization cartridge keeps the white dust down. A built-in humidistat lets the machine hold a set level instead of running until the tank empties.
