Cheap Self Filling Humidifier

Just got tired of having to fill it every day. I will later add a second 5 gallon bucket or connect to sink faucet.

This works with top fill humidifier and auto shut off fill valve, same like the bathroom seat tank.

This is what I use on my hydroponic tank when I go on vacation. Low tech.... works perfectly

With the humidifier... Where do you put the float valve?

Did you make that? I’ve been looking for something exactly like that. Please share
Yes, got top fill humidifier for $50 and auto shut fill valve ( two for $17 )

Connect to a hose to the valve and it will siphon by itself

This can last me 10 days at a time none stop with setting up humidity to medium low since its running not stop and I dont need it set at higher

I tried doing this once and it never worked correctly. I think I used a different sort of valve though. What kind do you have in the tank there?

The one below, its low pressure so it works for siphoning better
