Do not keep your humidifier in a confined space, get the most out of your humidifier by making sure it is not being restricted by it's surroundings.
Do not humidify over 50%, also reduce setting if moisture forms on windows, walls etc, or if there is dampness around the area of the humidifier. Recommended humidity levels are between 30-50%, this will vary on your personal comfort and the type of humidifier you own.
