Have you ever watched a glass of ice water in the summer. Water bubbles up on the outside of the glass normally... that's not water seeping through the glass, that's moisture in the air migrating toward the colder temperature of the glass. If you have humidity issues in your area, you can use this property to your advantage by installing a chilled waterfall or something. Having running water may seem like it would act contrary to the humidity issue in a home, but using the vapor properties, the colder water would attract the moisture in the air to the waterfall. Some people find it relaxing to listen to as well, although I just find it annoying... course my cat loves drinking from it.
There's not really a huge cost savings benefit to this... it's sort of the poor man's dehumidifier.
