For a martha, most people use both.
Cool Mist is primarily used to bring in fresh air.
Ultrasonic is primarily used to bring up RH.
If you are looking to only use one of the two....your best bet is the cool mist.
Cool mist will bring up RH decently, but will also still allow for fresh air....it won't however bring up the humidity like an ultrasonic can.
Some people have had success just by using a cool mist.
GL TO YA!

yeah, right on.
depending on your setup you might be able to get by with just the cool mist. start there, running 24/7. if you need, put the ultrasonic on a timer.

i only run my coolmist now, though i have an utlrasonic setup too, but my martha never seems to be lacking in humidity. if it ever is, i just turn on the ultra for a few minutes.

Cool mist for sure. The ultrasonic fog is just too dense IMHO. Or both. I have both myself but the coolmist gets poor Martha soaked with like 100% So I don't even use the fogger.

Go to the thrift store first. Mine cost me 4 bucks, works great, and has the capacity to hold like 3 times as much as the vicks.

OK just got back from both walmart and walgrees, both have many different types of "ultrasonic cool mist humidifiers" but i couldn't find any that just said cool mist,is this what I'm looking for? Id like to get a hose and leave the humidifier or cool mist out of the closet only some of the humidifiers have that round tube that would allow this i think, anyone have a writeup on this also I was looking for shelves and couldn't find any that would fit I'm planing on using the chain and zip ties teq. Please help with any teqs thanks a lot! also i was looking into this fogger teq any suggestions im basicly tring to keep humidity up and a desent exchange of air.

i think CVS is trying to get rid of thier vicks cool mists from back when they were ekerds, so they can start selling only thier own brand humidifiers. this was a few months ago.
anyway the point is i got a brand new coolmist for $5.

i just bought a cool mist.... working on modifying it. my ultrasonic is great for rh. but lacks extremely in FAE!!! i gotta figure out how i can stick a tube into this puppy. i hate the designs of the cool mist.... they have big slots. nothing like the ultrasonics, they have a hole, for easily placing a tube in

I got one from walgreens $30, i cut a 2 liter top and ductaped it to the output of the humidifier and made a split with 2 hoses that i contracted out of some home depot sprinkler stuff now the hoses should be blowing the smoke on the top of the Martha closet or should i keep the hoses to the bottom for c02 escape? And how about air exchange is it needed still?
