They should add a little sticker that certifies that the humidifier supports water conservation, but in the sense of energy conservation or momentum conservation.

Yeah I remember reading a negative review for a Raspberry Pi passive cooler case that was a complaining about the case getting hot sometimes. That’s the one I got, because yeah guy, that’s the thing doing what it’s supposed to do.
I bought a dehumidifier to save on heating without risking mold last winter. Emptying the water compartment is super satisfying, and I’m still amazed by how much water this thing pulls that would otherwise seep into my wallpapers and such.
I ripped them a new one for an air conditioner I bought that made more heat than it did cool!
That’s why I laugh at the desktop AC units. You’re just going to make the room hotter.
I’m not an expert on thermodynamics, but we do have a humidifier.
My laypersons understanding is that it works by booking water to steam and kinda hoping some of the steam is absorbed by the air to become humidity, rather than condensing to water vapour as it cools.
It tries to maximise the humidity by having this internal chamber to mix steam with air and catch condensation but of course some steam escapes.
That I’d to say, I think it’s possible for some humidifiers to produce more humidity with less water given that inefficient humidifiers produce more steam as a waste product.
Where does this steam “waste product” go?
Ok Mr Snarky pants…
Where do you think it goes?
Into the air. Which results in the air having more water in it, ie. more humidity.
Steam is not humidity.
If there’s no puddle forming around the humidifier, doesn’t that mean all the water is dissolved in the air? Where else could it go?
The steam condenses into vapour when it comes into contact with the ceiling, walls, and windows.
