No clue, but two settings, either run continuous or inter-mittenly

But around this time, it stop being very useful as outside temp is around 13-20C here in Toronto now.

Just be careful if you go to big you may need to have a humidifier going as well. Then your paying to remove the moisture you have to put back. Go with what they tell you as they should know. Just my hvac 2cents.

Loudest part of my system would be the nagging sound I hear on a regular basis about how much time and money I spend on the tank.

I'm using a Lennox passive system which is controlled via a programmable electronic humidistat(Honeywell). you just set it to the humidity level you wish to maintain and it does the rest.
