I doubt that it is the high humidity along that is causing it. My range keeps a blue flame even in the crazy Philadelphia summers with 80 or 90 percent humidity.
I wonder if Baharra's humidifier comes with the silver ionizer (if I'm getting this right) that mine does and if that would affect the flame. (I'm not a scientist, mind you, so I could be completely off.)
I've been boiling water on the stove off and on today to increase the humidity in my apartment (bad, I know, but I kept a close eye on it). The flame was blue, and there was no problem. After setting up my humidifier tonight, even below 40% rh my range is giving me a yellow flame since running it. I'm going to keep the humidifier in my room tonight instead of in the kitchen and see if it improves tomorrow.
I did some research online, and it did say not to use the humidifier near gas appliances (mine is not near the range). However, I thought that was only because of the risk of a spark. Interesting. Let me know if you find out more!
