If your walls are showing moisture at certain times in the winter, my guess is that the remaining times, your humidity is still above norm. I do not humidify during the winter but I do not heat with scorched air either.

the 'proper' indoor RELATIVE humidity to avoid condensation will vary with outside temperature

from 20% when very cold outside to 45% when chilly outside

as humidity requires TIME to 'settle's a good compromise is 30% indoor during the winter


set your humidifier to 25% for 72 hours - take it from there in SMALL steps
