What is a Humidifier?

Residential humidifiers are devices and appliances that add moisture to the air in a home to keep it from drying out and causing problems. Humidifiers work for single rooms, small areas, or for entire homes or buildings. Whole-home humidifiers function alongside existing HVAC equipment to add humidified air to a home’s outgoing air before it travels into the ductwork and is transported throughout the home. Depending on the type, humidifiers can also work independently of your HVAC equipment to maintain humidity levels even when the furnace or air handler isn’t in use as a stand-alone product.

Benefits of Humidifier Installation

Learn how a humidifier can work to keep both add moisture to the air and make your indoor air healthy and pure:

Prevents Morning Sore Throat

When the air is extremely dry, it can affect your vocal cords. Dry air can leave you with a dry, scratchy throat in the morning. Keeping the air moist and maintaining humidity levels during the winter helps provide relief to your vocal cords, especially while you sleep.

More Comfortable Sinuses

Have you ever woken in bed during the winter with a dry nose that felt stiff from your home’s air supply? Even if you don’t have a cold or illness, winter weather and its dry air affect our sinuses, which can lower your immunity to airborne bacteria and other germs. More moisture in the air means more comfortable sinuses.

Reduce Static Electricity

With dryer air, there also arise issues with static electricity in the form of shocks that are almost inevitable in some homes during the winter. No one likes a jarring jolt of a static shock or having to deal with their clothing sticking to them. It’s not good for your electronics either. Using a humidifier helps reduce, if not remove, static electricity from your home during the wintertime.

Healthier Pet & Plant Life

We aren’t the only ones affected by winter’s dry air. Our pets and plants living in the home are affected as well. Plant leaves begin to look droopy and the soil seems dryer than normal. Pets, depending on the type, are affected in other ways. Humidifiers help keep you and your pets and plants healthy.

General Humidifier FAQ

What is a good level of humidity to maintain?

Our home comfort experts say homeowners should maintain a relative humidity level between 30 and 50%. Some even say this level is better, between 40 and 50%. Humidity levels of more than 50 percent create a breeding ground for bacteria, dust mites, mold, and other pests. Humidity levels that are less than 30 percent increase the risk of flu viruses and the cold, among other illnesses. Ultimately, high levels can create uncomfortable respiratory symptoms.

What size humidifier do I need?

The size of the humidifier you should use will depend on several factors. Mainly, you want to consider the square footage area you would like to humidify. Most humidifier manufacturers offer the square footage coverage range with their product’s specifications. If you’re looking for humidity control for your whole house to protect wood and create a more comfortable environment that costs less to heat, give us a call or see our whole-home humidifier special offer.

How much maintenance do humidifiers need?

If you’re looking for a humidifier that requires the least amount of work, you should consider a whole-house humidifier or a whole-home humidifier. These units are hardwired into your system and connected to your plumbing. Portable humidifiers, however, need a lot of maintenance that includes cleaning it and regularly filling the reservoir.

Because home heating and cooling units are made strong and designed to last a long time and provide you comfort throughout your home around the clock, they can be expensive.
