So previously places I had included high end digital humidifier attached to the furnace. Condos forced me to supply my own. My current home has the basic humidifier, a summer/winter option on the furnace itself and a control switch with the thermostat upstairs.

The problem I am having is that the Winter option seems to open the valve 100%, summer closes it 100%. Calgary has very low humidity, so in the winter I need it open (the summer setting) yet I should use the control switch to lower the relative humidity, since moisture against glass will fog up and create ice. In the summer, I want it to humidify at full blast, yet the summer setting appears to close the system down 100%. What is going on here?

I want more humidity, so what do I do?
