You need a wicking humidifier, like https://www.homedepot.ca/product/honeywell-honeywell-console-cool-moisture-humidifier-for-multi-room-3-4-gallon/1001020754 . At full speed with a fresh filter it can certainly put 2+ pints of water into the air per hour. I have one plugged into a smart plug, and my home automation system automatically toggles it on/off to keep my target humidity. You say that all of them in your country are ultrasonic, but can you order the wicking filter from another country? The rest of it is just a fan, and a tray with water for the filter to sit in.

This Honeywell one uses evaporation instead of a heating element or whatever sonic stuff is in many others. Since it's just a fan and the wicking element it's way less prone to failure (not perfect, but every bit helps). We've got 2 and they work great, very quiet as well. - [https://a.co/d/hjawtFC](https://a.co/d/hjawtFC)

the models change a lot. 5 years later you wont find the parts or whatever, so its all about the wicks. i got a honeywell. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B005LD1Y7E/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1 still available. don't get any bells and whistles. Make sure the wicks are available in 4 or 8 packs. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07X8ZNJ8S/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1 if the wicks are fancy looking and not justsome folded looking ass paper, don't buy it. unit is on four years; its just a fan, a tank of water, and the wick. biggest internal volume you can get. this ones a gallon and it lasts about 30 hours on low in the winter in a dry house. anything with side loading tanks or things like that is trouble to clean we have a really big unit for the whole house. we have a sort of sun room area that has a damn faucet. i was nervous about a faucet inside but i rolled up the big unit and it fits under it perfectly. fillup so fast and easy. theres one thing to remember about these evaporators unlike the stupid vibrating ones: it almost doesnt matter how gross they get. the ick stays inside and only the vapor goes up. i typically clean them only at end of season by dumping the wick and then filling with vinegar and water, letting sit, then spraying out, and lastly a quick wipe with paper

I have the Honeywell evaporative humidifier. Most of it can go in the dishwasher. The biggest pain (which is only a pain to remember, not to actually do), is to flip the filter daily to make sure it doesn’t dry out in places

Skip the misting ones. They can really mess up your air quality, and kind of alarmingly so. You want a regular evaporative one, with the wick. The $60 Honeywell one is fantastic. We leave it running basically 24/7 on medium, cranking up to high at night. It’s about a dollar of electricity a month. It claims to have a UV bulb that helps prevent mold growth. Idk how true that is, but we haven’t had any problems. A tablespoon of hydrogen peroxide every now and again.

We went through like 4 mist humidifiers before switching to an evaporative one. Much more reliable and they don't leave that annoying residue everywhere.

It's worth spending the extra few dollars for an OEM filter. I need to change the Honeywell filter mid season once, and do a weekly cleaning of the bowl, but it's mostly maintenance free.

I would likely recommend an evaporative humidifier, not a warm mist one. The mist ones have a lot of problems, such as being more prone to bacteria growth and harder to clean. They also try to add more moisture than the air can actually hold, resulting in mineral condensation (white dust) appearing everywhere over time, especially if you have hard water. Aircare makes a decent console-style evap humidifier with a decent tank size and is pretty easy to clean. I used one for years until we moved to a house with a humidifier on the furnace. Now I use a smaller Honeywell evaporative humidifier upstairs only. It gets filled each evening, runs constantly all winter, and cleaned each weekend. I went through about half a dozen of those warm mist ones before converting. It didn't matter the brand, how much I treated the water of cleaned them, they were all pieces of junk that lasted only 1-2 years. Crane ones were probably the worst.

Nothing on the carpet. I kept it on a plastic tub lid, just in case but never found water. The Honeywell one i just put on a dresser. Never used one with an air purifier. I wouldn't put them next to each other since they are both ducking in air, but I dont think there would be problems
