Default Re: Moist-N-Air and cabinet

Dose the Moist-N-Air have a white box "Should be the Humistat Control" on the top?
That should regulate the humidity but you might want to put the unit in the middle of your Humidor. I found the middle to be the ideal spot when using that unit. Also set the gauge lower then your desired
Humidity those units hold a heck of a lot of water so that's going to add a few levels of humidity.

Keep playing "lowering the dial" till the Humidor balances out.

The control dial on the moist-n-aire isn't particuarly accurate - you have to use a seperate hygrometer and based on that reading, you dial the setting up or down.

I had mine set at 50% to get the cab at 65%.. I had a moist-n-aire for years.
Since my Cab was just about 7 feet tall I also had 3 separate Hydros every 2 feet.

i use the Moistnaire in my cabinet as well. i love it. no cartridges to refill, just top off the res and thats it. the adjustment is not very accurate, but once you get it dialed in just like T.G. says its golden.

i also run 2 small computer fans in the corners to circulate the air to even up the differance from top to bottom.

my cab is about 6' x 4' x 18" and been running smooth for a few years now.
