Last winter I tried to have a humidifer in my small centrally heated bedroom. its an old house I live in.... so it would have if left the way it was....... led to muilitiple issues such as paint/ceiling damage on the ceiling, mold on the blankets/ the door to my room making noises when I shut it/ other issues.


staff basically took down the humitifer to help.

as it was maitmence had to come in and fix the gaping hole in the ceiling- wood planks showed it was so bad- we later found out it was from the upstairs bathroom pipes not the humidifier but still.

my question is if I run it by staff and they say yes is there any ways to humidify damage proof a room so you can have higher humidity levels in winter without theses bad things happening such as above posted.

maybe do the bedding more often so mold never grows or applying water proof paint to the walls/ ceiling/ surfaces.
