Remember, ultrasonic humidifiers are not to be used in computer rooms
since they generate particles that munch floppy disks.   Also, they
are of very small capacities and not suitable for whole homes.  If
you have to use a portable humidifier for a large area, the only big
ones are those at sears.  They have the capacity and reservoir size 
to do the job.
