Does a dehumidifier work if I have a humidifier in the other room?

The dehumidifier would in a sense "win" this battle. Since the dehumidifier sucks water out the air and the humidifier adds water to it. The humidifier would run out of water before the dehumidifier sucks all the water out the air.

How to Change a HuMIDIfier Filter?

Typically, a humidifier comes with a gauge or indicator of some sort to let you know when its filter needs to be changed. Sometimes, though, these gauges break or just aren’t as accurate as would be desired. There are ways to tell if a humidifier filter needs changed without using a gauge, though. The human body is equipped with all of the sensory devices necessary for determining if it is time to change the humidifier filter. Just follow these simple steps: - Before opening the humidifier to inspect the filter, be sure the unit is off and unplugged. - The first and best tool for this is a healthy nose. If the humidifier has a damp or mildew smell to it, the filter probably needs to be changed. With the filter being in constant contact with water, over time it is likely to develop bacteria and mold or mildew that will emit a noticeable odor. It is undesirable to have bacteria and mold spores emitted into the air that you are breathing, so when you begin to notice this smell, change the humidifier filter promptly. - The eyes are another handy device for determining if a humidifier filter needs to be changed. The bacteria and mold mentioned above could leave a noticeable residue. Also, if the filter is old it will begin to deteriorate. A filter that is rotted or torn should be discarded and replaced. Damaged filters will not operate nearly as efficiently as a new, intact filter. To change the filter on most models of humidifier, you need only lift the old filter out of its housing and insert a new filter. Be sure to clean the inside of the humidifier when changing the filter so as to remove any bacteria or mold that may be on the housing or in the base. A mixture of water and bleach would be a good idea for a thorough cleaning.


Why does my brakes make noise when trying to stop and it does not stop right away?

squeaking from your brakes could mean they are needing replacement, manufacturers build in metal tabs to the brake pads so when they get low they squeak, have them checked before too long, it gets costly if you wait.
