it has an electronic humidification system called "Set & Forget" that has a digital temp & humidity monitor, two 1.5 quart water reservoir and 6 fans for circulating the air. So far it has done a really fine job of maintaining stable humidity (no pun intended :^), but I couldn't afford the extra $ for temp regulation so I'll spend a fortune air conditioning the house at 70F this summer - go figure.
Oh, and 10 yrs just about might do it. It's a sickness I tell ya.
