Here's another question. If you have one of these humidifiers running through a separate control switch, what happens if the water runs out while you are away? Will it keep running and running until the humidifier motor burns out? Maybe I don't have to worry about this because I have cats and someone has to come in and check on them anyway, but could this be an issue?
Also, I assume the switches work by shutting the power on and off to the humidifier, that's why it's necessary to have a unit that doesn't require reset after power outage. I've begun thinking about trying to set something up in the main living space where the woodstove is. In my search thus far, I haven't located a currently available large capacity unit that doesn't have this "feature".
