What about running the fan 24/7? So keep the air moving?
EDIT: Just saw BMW's response. OK so then you get less condensation because the humidifier is only on when air is circulating?

Well to be specific, in fact we have a two stage HVAC fan, which is set to constantly run 24/7 (so normal operation is at the lower, stage 1). When either the air conditioner or furnace comes on, the fan increases in strength (to stage 2). This ensures air circulation and more even air temps on all 3 levels of the home year round. This setting was also suggested by our HVAC installer as they claim this lowers how often the unit has to run in either air conditioning or heating mode.
But the humidifier running is
independent of the fan - that only runs when the furnace comes on, and pushes out the humidified air at the stage 2 fan. Clear as mud?
