Your humidifier may be dripping water because of a clog in the water tank or the humidifier's filter. This can cause excess water to build up and leak out. Regular cleaning and maintenance can help prevent this issue.
To distill water for a humidifier effectively, you can boil the water to create steam, then collect and cool the steam to condense it back into water. This process removes impurities and minerals, providing clean water for your humidifier.
When a furnace is leaking water with a humidifier attached, it could be due to a clogged drain line or a malfunctioning humidifier. The excess moisture from the humidifier may be overwhelming the system, causing water to leak. It is important to check and clean the drain line and ensure the humidifier is functioning properly to prevent further leaks.
if a small amount of water is dripping it is normal condensation from running an engine
Your air conditioner may be faulty if it is not dripping water.
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.
If something is "dripping", then it usually means that water is coming from it slowly and intermittently. For example, if a wet towel is hung on a rail, it would be "dripping" water.

Your humidifier may be leaking water due to a clog in the water tank or a damaged seal. It could also be caused by overfilling the tank or a problem with the humidifier's internal components. Regular maintenance and proper usage can help prevent leaks.
Usually, water.. because it puts humidity into the air (humidifier-humidity.. get it..?) or you might put water mixed in with some sort of medicine that helps improve breathing. but that's only if you need the humidifier to help with a sickness.

No. Not unless there is separate compartment attached to the outside area of the humidifier for that purpose.
