Yes sir!!!! How about a little CLR?

Might work? No experience with them fancy chemical doo-dads!

I'm use to the fancy chemical doo-dads because the water is so hard hear.

I would be careful using ultra-sonic foggers. I had one that had a small motor to propel the fog. I ran it 12 hours a day for high humidity. One day I came home to find my wardian case full of smoke, and the fogger melting. I dont think they are made for long term or long use.

When I used an ultrasonic room-type humidifier to keep a basement area moist, I did the following to ensure a water supply:

• Remove water tank altogether.
• Cut a rounded groove in the water-containment "lip" in the base.
• Silicone glued a piece of drain tubing into that groove.
• Drain tube was directed into a 5-gallon bucket, which was filled with water and held a small submersible pump, which had a tube running up to the humidifier, keeping it filled.

I later added a float valve to the bucket, and ran a 1/4" tube from a saddle valve so I wouldn't have to manually fill the bucket.

By the way, I have pumps, float valves and tubing available for all you do-it-yourselfers.
