What is the best way to keep the humidity up in a whole room? Each cage is close to perfect but the room has droped to 22% since the heat is on all the time now. I want the room to be around 65 to 70%.

I am curious as too your application. I can think of a couple exceptions but would generally recommend against having such high room humidity in a herp room.

Reticulated pythons and green anaconda's. Plus this is my hide room so I like it hot and humid, as well as the plant's. When I turned the heater on it dried the whole house out. I want a nice muggy room and the snakes like the high humidity.

That makes sense. I work with smaller species like Thamnophis. It is efficient enough for me to control humidity with the enclosures.
