Winter pro tip:
- plug the bathtub drain
- fire up the hot water through the shower
- point box fan (got mine for $20 @ home depot) at the tub/shower
Best humidifier, EVER. Leave the box fan on, even after you turn off the shower. The water in the bathtub continues to evaporate and give relief from winter dryness.
Update: picture above is of my parent’s house in Michigan a couple of winters ago.
I did something similar in my extremely dry Pittsburgh apartment: shower on, box fan in the door to the bathroom blowing in, rest of apartment humidifies within 20 minutes.
