      @jd central and room. The central doesn't work as well when the furnace is in heat-pump mode, so the room humidifiers help in bedrooms at night. If it gets really cold, I have to turn the humidity down to the low 30%, otherwise too much condensation and ice will form on windows.

        @johnefrancis
        Some years back and in a different house, I had a contraption called a Rumidifier that had a water tank and a wick and it fit over the (forced air) vent. No electricity required. It worked pretty well. But the company that made it (Canadian) has gone out of business.
