    I am guessing they are aware how their machine works. Air isn’t usually stagnant, if you have moving air that means moisture is replacing it.

      I’m just saying it’s way too energy intensive and not even worth it. You’re using this thing in a dry environment. I mean maybe you run this on solar energy and just have crazy amounts of electricity, maybe it’s worth it.
