Press room and digital environment temperature range

What temperature range do you keep your press room at? Digital? We don't have a separate storage room the paper is all in with the press room all the time.

30-40% humidity and 65-75 degrees is optimal.

Is anyone running humidification equipment they can recommend? I'm in the process of trying to humidify a 4000 sq ft space.

We run a Merlin RO system. For humidification and also to feed our monster Canon IX3200, which requires it for internal conditioning. The Merlin is expensive, but very effective.

We use some chinesium brand of "industrial humidifier" sourced from Amazon. I think our brand was something like Lacidol. The ones we have old about 5/gallons each, and output about 1 gallon into the air per hour. About $200-300 for units of this type. We also have to either run distilled water or be diligent about demineralization capsules to prevent white dust buildup on our machines. Our service tech does not like seeing white dust when repairing issues.
