We use a wood stove..and need moisture since it is hot-dry heat..Will this serve my purposes?

this is a fairly high out put for a portable humidifier and it does very well (on low fan) in my 1300 sq ft home. I don't know your square footage or how 'tight' your home is, so it's hard to say definitively if this will do the trick.

We have a wood stove (it's going right now, today morning it was quite cold here in NM) and this humidifier works just great. I moistened the filter as recommended in their booklet, filled up the tanks, plugged it in and set it to the highest setting. We have a 1500 sq. ft home and the humidity was always 19% in the house. Since we turned the unit on about an hour ago it went up to 32%. We'll wait until it reaches about 45% and that's where we will set it permanently. As I said, it works like a charm in a home that is heated with a wood stove. If you'll decide to get one you won't regret it.

Just place water on your wood stove and you will produce all the moisture you need with a minimal cost to you.

I think you will like it. The two containers are good sized and it puts out humidity well. It is pretty quiet, too.

Just fill a 4 gallon stewing pot full of water and place it on your wood stove. No need for a humidifier inyour case and you get to save on electricity.

This really puts a lot of moisture in the air! We have about 1000 sq. ft, and I have it on the lowest setting. I don't know about the wood stove part; we have radiator heat. Good Luck!

It would first depend on the square footage of your home. Either way I would not suggest this one. I would go back to a console and haul a bucket of water versus taking one or two containers provided to fill the humidifier up every morning. When you decide on one (larger version) you will notice a big change of moist air in your home.

I've been using a wood stove for 22 years, and the best you can do is get a humidifier. putting any pot or can of water on top of stove at best is inefficient and at worse is dangerous, when it runs dry and you're not right there, what happens next? people; if you don't know what you're talking about please say nothing!

get yourself a 1 gallon metal can. fill with water. place on stove (flat surface).when water is low refill, problem solved.

I do agree that a large console humidifier might work better - but I have a very large bedroom and live in a dry winter climate - it does a great job for me. I also have radiator heat and it gets so dry without the humidifier. I purchased a small temp/humidifier display and this Honeywell raises my humidity quickly - within an hour. It will empty completely for me in a 24 hour period. Hope that helps.

Yes, here is the spec-sheet which is states that it has moisture protection http://www.homedepot.com/catalog/pdfImages/bb/bb7d022c-d1e7-4d74-95c4-8d47ef93a284.pdf

Just in a cool dry place. Kitchen cabinet works. It's oil, so it won't evaporate like a normal liquid.

No, I would not use this product for that. To be truthful, it would really look ugly. Instead, I would fabricate an aluminum "flare" the would channel the heat away from the mantel. I would position it on the back of my wood stove angled toward the front. If you are creative, you can even make a decorative one that has a fancy outer border.

Absolutely not, it is purely interior only, all of the wood is exposed and is furniture grade, so no moisture at all.

it is painted, so the paint may peel due to the heat from the stove. I would say no.

Yes, but be careful not to let it boil dry or boil over as this can damage both the pan and the stove.

I have used this stove for indoor use...BUT...........make sure the area is very very well ventilated........I have done this myself.....but in the end it should not be use in enclose areas.

Your camping stove should definitely be fine on the table. It's sturdy for what it is and if you keep it safe from wet elements, it will last you. It's been one of our favorite BBQ accessory purchases

Nope - all of the excess moisture is released as steam through a small vent in the top. If you operate it under your kitchen cabinet though the steam will warp the wood above (I noticed when it was too late lol).

The type of stove I have keeps all the heat in the stove, so the chimney stays cooler than most.....with this product, using dry seasoned wood I run a brush up the chimney in the fall just before using my stove(very little build up) for the season. my stove burns about 20 hours per load of wood . so every other load I sprinkle a small scoop over the wood - seems to work fine except for the cost.

I do not think it would tolerate the moisture. It is wood and i think it would soak up any moisture it was sitting in and that woukd swell and soften the wood. Itvis a gorgeous acreen and we love it, but we use it indoors. Hope this helps.

Certainly! In fact, if you anticipate wet conditions, carrying wood chips would be a great idea as insurance against being stuck without being able to use your stove.

I guess you could but I would be careful if it is electric. If you fill it too high it will boil and some water can come down on the stove. With my woodstove it evaporates....it may cause problems w/an electric stove. I personally wouldn't.

It is designed to use with a wood stove and to add some humidity to the room. There was a statement (warning?) on the box about not drinking the water used in this kettle.

I would make sure you put the hot pan on top of a pot holder. Otherwise, you will burn the wood

Yes, definitely, although we never use the heated dry option. Doubt that would make a difference, though. Very nice, sturdy cutting board.
