My question is that the HVAC subcontractor recommended an automated humidifer as my home will have close to 2,500 sq ft of hardwood along with some custom cabinetry being placed in the basement.
This steam humidistat being recommend though is over $1,900 - therefore I would like to know other people's opinions / insight.

Is something like thisreally a benefit or does the builder grade Honeywell that has the water line work ok?
Currently I've held off saying yes as I want to learn more before making any additional expenditure. |
Is it all engineered hardwood? I think engineered flooring is supposed to be really tolerant of humidity and moisture.
