I know what you mean by accepting some things. Maybe it's drain of the 5 weeks of construction noise, and having too many stresses over a short period of time.
The only settings are low, medium and high, with 3 levels of noise. I'm going to try hers.
Mom has already accepted hers, although I'm a little uncomfortable with the controls and have to have the manual nearby. Maybe what I'll is buy one for myself on Cybermonday in early December!
I have found over the years I can tolerate noise if it belongs there. So obviously mice in the wall would not be acceptable or dripping taps but a humidifier I could get used to. For me that is the criteria. How loud it is doesn't matter. My tractor is noisy but it is supposed to be. Could you set it on foam so it isn't so noisy.
I got over the fear of this humidifier not being perfect, after showing it off to mom, and it's a beauty
Personally I'm not sure I can cope with any noise, so I'm going to try her old one, but I might just have try making something by connecting a wide duct to the vent in the wall.
I think I just took a wrong step in the dark a week or so ago...but I was almost sure it was the other foot. I guess in the dark, left and right can be mixed.
Thanks Davit. I woke this morning after a night of stomach pain(probably eating late) and ankle pain(don't know why) and the realization that I shouldn't be buying the product I bought, since it produces ozone, which triggers asthma.
Sometimes information is a dangerous thing, and maybe I should put a sign on my computer:
DON'T BELIEVE WHAT YOU THINK
I'm not certain that I use information productively
With the heating season having begun, I found I was emotionally drained by the indecision surrounding buying a humidifier, and broke a bad habit today of putting it off, by actually purchasing it.
An old one I have was noisy, and my parent actually needs it, since it has a responsive technology, unlike older models which just keep running.
I feel a great weight off my shoulders, and can't wait to open the box, and set it up in the morning. It will be like Christmas day!
