Can anyone recommend a good water treatment to put in the pan of a whole house humidifier that will reduce how often I have to replace the media pad and clean the whole thing out? I seem to get a lot of deposits on the pad and the pan pretty quickly.

Yea, I'm in Chicago, so that's probably it. Is there anything I can put on the water line that would help? I've seen supposed "water treatment" contraptions that you hook up to the outside of the water line. Not sure if those actually do anything though.

I suppose it wouldn't hurt to try something but in the long run, the media is gonna get gooed up with calcium and lime and the slimy mess you sometimes find in drains. On a cooling tower like for a nuke plant they have a water curtain that air blows through cleaning the air and humidifying it. too bad they don't make something like this for the house.
