Mark, Find the tradesman with the screwdriver who adjusts the heating units and take him for lunch. Remember his birthday... Six pack... Get him on board to try the humidifiers and keep them adjusted. After our humidifiers started running I reported the numbers to the heating tradesman every week. I learned what rooms were serviced by which heating unit and made a chart with the temp/humidify numbers. Every month the charts and numbers were forwarded to the heating department with many kudo for how well they were helping the entire Music Department. Takes great effort, but worth every minute.
