Sorry, David; I should have been more detailed. No tanks, just a alum, bar and a humidistat for the the nasty times of year on the practice uprights. They do help BTW. Just wondering on life spans....

You could call Randy or Kelly at Damppchaser to get a safety opinion, but I assume they're as safe as an old lightbulb. When they stop, they stop. On the other hand, what's up with the rest of the system? Is there a 'rest of...'? The humidfier bar would be more likely to need replacing due to corrosion. The pads should probably be changed, at least. :-) David Skolnik Hastings on Hudson, NY At 12:36 PM 1/25/2011, you wrote: Hi Gang! How long ago did DC stop making those dehumidifiers out of the shiny aluminum? How long do they last and/or, are they safe? We have several in uprights in practice rooms and faculty rooms. Just wondering if their lifespan is ending any time soon. Thanks Paul -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
