HUMICON'S Sales department Tips Why to buy a Humicon HUMIDORS
- Our units are unique. We have Patented technology that is not utilized by any of the competition.
- Our units were designed by an Engineer with 30+ years experience in the Heating and Air Conditioning Industry.
- The Humicon Humidor was specifically designed by a cigar lover for Humidification of his cigars.
- What makes our units different, Please notice the holes at the bottom of the unit and the slots at the top - This was designed so that our humidors change the air in the unit 2 to 3 times per hour. The changing of air is important to prevent the build up of Mold and the mixing of cigar flavors.
- As humidity is generated, the humidity naturally rises. This creates a natural convection that draws fresh air in from the holes at the bottom of the unit. As the humidity continues to rise, it forces the stale air out the top.
- Additionally, you can set your humidor at the desired humidity and leave it. Consistent humidity control.
- Most important is that the Humicon Humidors can maintain any level of humidity while the ambient is at any level. (Theoretically, you can make it rain in the humidor while the ambient is 13% in the middle of February. Although, we all know that you would not want it to rain in a cigar humidor.) Remember, these units were specifically made for cigars and controlling their humidity levels.
- Humicon Humidors have no moving parts which can more easily break.
- The units do not make noise when they operate, so they can be placed in any room and not disturb the occupants.
- How is humidity created - A tray of water is located at the bottom of the wood box. The water is evaporated by a small flat heater that is located under the pan of water. The water temperature is only increased 1 to 2 degrees. We are looking to increase the rate of evaporation, not create steam. The evaporated water quickly raises humidity in the unit. The evaporated water creates a cooling affect which actually decreases the temperature by absorbing heat that is already in the box.
- The tray of water holds 1 gallon of water. Typically the additional water needs to be added every six to eight weeks. Distilled water is recommended, but tape water can be used.
- The draw is easily removable. A person can pull the draw out and use it as a tray to serve guests in the house. There is ample room for 300+ cigars in the unit.
