I just got off the phone about a power switch to my old Sears
humidifier and they informed me that the switch is no longer available.
I'm wondering, beings it is a power switch, can I use something like a
general power switch to run this unit? I hate to install a new unit as
this seems to be the only thing wrong with it.

Many thanks in advance for your answers.

Yes you can. Just make sure that the voltage and current ratings of the
switch you install are high enough to handle the unit's requirements.
You can find a wide variety of switches at Newark Electronics
(www.newark.com), so maybe you can find one to mechanically fit the
unit.
