I've got a humidifier that sits on the floor. It takes about two gal of water per day to keep my trailer comfortable.
Is there any advantage to feeding it with hot water?

You know the answer to that.
If not, look at this yourself and do the math:

I do? What answer do I know?
I did glance at the web page. So, what's the answer that I already know?
24 hours later. One reply, which didn't even offer a position. I'll admit to being disappointed.
Then you should admit to asking stupid questions... ??? ???
How water will evaporate at a faster rate. But the water isn't going to stay hot for very long. Not only will it cool just like a bucket of hot water, but because water is constantly being evaporated, it will cool fast, like a swamp cooler works. And unless the humidifier is undersized and can't supply enough moisture using cold water, what would the point be anyway?
The BTU or calories have to come from some where. Either the water heater, or the furnace. The advantage of using hot water is that for a few minutes, it evaporates easier.
If you knew that, then why did you post the question to begin with?
Maybe he temporarily forgot he knew? Did you ever forget where you put your car keys?
Yes, but I never forgot how a key works.
I notice so far no one has answered my question.
Every now and again, there is some thing I don't know. Which someone else on this list knows. This might be one such time. That's why.

Newsreader broken? Google broken? WTF is "clearn"?
