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.
