When I did HVAC, my boss used to install Aprilaire 600 or 700, can't
remember. They do a nice job. Installing them does take a bit of
planning, 3D mental layouot, plumbing, electrical, and sheet metal
skill. If you have all those skills, then have at it.

I've scheduled a furnace replacement for next month. It will be a 95%
high efficiency natural gas unit. The contractor wanted an additional
$600 to install an Aprilaire 600 whole house humidifier. The price on
Amazon if about $190, maybe cheaper elsewhere, so I can buy that one
and install it myself.

However, I've also looked at literature for other brands and they all
claim to do wonderful things. In the absence of objective data, I'd
like for the knowledgeable folks in this newsgroup to make a
humidifier brand /model recommendation. I live in the Kansas City
area and need to humidify about 2400 square feet of living space.
Thanks for the advice.
