A humidifier was on my Christmas list, because I will be spending several weeks in Utah downhill skiing. Compared to New York State, Utah has very dry air. I think this appliance will be so helpful in raising the relative humidity, especially at night while sleeping. I am in hopes that it will eliminate nosebleeds and dry sinuses.
                    With a higher relative humidity in our home, I am not feeling as chilled. (The thermostat is normally set at 71-72 degrees, and I was previously feeling chilly. Not now.) Another good reason for adding humidity to my home is that it helps to keep my piano in tune.
