![]() I have a 90 gallon DT and glass tops on it, with a 50 gallon half full sump not covered and loose approx. 1 gallon a day. Kind of a good humidifier system for the house in winter months IMO.

![]() should check humidifier type on your furnace, if it uses a humidistat you'll be okay but if just a float type should turn off the water supply.
Also you should be monitoring your home's humidity, if you end end to much problems can range from windows fogging, structure and mould unless controlled.

![]() yeah seems about normal. Of course it will also slightly depend on the temp of the room as well as the water but...
I go through 4-5 GPD easily. Wish I had more room than a 20 Gal ATO container under my sump that I can only fill to 15 Gal. Seems like I am always filling that thing up but with a large open top tank and sump it's pretty normal to have that much volume driven off.

![]() 110g total here - 75g open top (covered but vented with inlets and exhaust fan) with an open 3/4 full 50g sump
Currently room is 73, tank is 79, and I go through 2g daily; more when it dips below zero C Summer I think it's about 1g/day - maybe a bit more And for those with humidity issues, open a couple windows I leave a couple cracked open all winter for fresh air (older home), and there's no hint of humidity issues anywhere |
