Great piece and very tasteful addition to your home. As a newb I don't really know the answer to this, but I have to wonder if the location you've chosen will be beneficial to you. I notice in your pics that there is a heating/cooling vent on the floor just to the left of your new humi. I guess my question to this would be whether or not that vent may become problematic in the winter months when you are heating your home for regulating your humidity. Just a thought, may be one of the more experienced members could chime in on this for everyone's benefit.
