What Is a Humidifier and What Does It Do?
When it comes to moisture levels in the home, most of the focus is on the importance of dehumidifiers to remove excess moisture from the air to minimize mold growth and foul odors. However, drier air can be just as damaging, making air humidifiers an essential addition to any house, especially during the colder months. Humidifiers add monitored levels of humidity to indoor air to prevent dry conditions that cause skin irritation and breathing problems.
Humidifier Benefits for Your Health
Colder temperatures bring drier air, making indoor air during the winter months in our area uncomfortable for many reasons. Without enough moisture in the air, our skin dries out and cracks. The symptoms of common colds and cases of flu are magnified with less moisture in the air too. By having a whole-home humidifier installed, the added moisture during dry times will help alleviate:
- Dry skin
- Dry throats
- Sinus congestion
- Nose irritation and bloody noses
- Dry coughs
- Cracked lips
Humidifier Options for Your Home
Our team of certified technicians can install a whole-house humidifier sized appropriately for your home that will provide the right amount of moisture to the air even during the driest months. This is the most thorough and comprehensive option for homeowners since they work with your HVAC system and can provide moisture in any room with vents connected to the ductwork. They are also safer because they don’t emit steam, so there’s no possibility of getting a burn. There are other options available besides central humidifiers. However, they are not as comprehensive and don’t provide complete coverage since they can only add moisture in one room at a time. These options include:
- Evaporators
- Impeller humidifiers
- Steam vaporizers
- Ultrasonic humidifiers
- Cool mist humidifiers
- Warm mist humidifiers
Create a Healthier Environment Inside Your Home
Not only will a humidifier benefit your family and guests, but your home will reap the benefits as well. If you have plants that thrive on moisture from the air, they will remain healthy during the winter and continue to add health qualities to indoor air. Other items in your home, such as furniture, wood floors, and wallpaper that can be sensitive to drier conditions, will last longer with the right amount of added humidity in your home. Another benefit of more humid air is that it feels warmer, which could help you save on energy consumption during the winter months too.
Maintenance for Whole-House Humidifiers
Like any heating and cooling appliance, a central humidifier will require annual maintenance to ensure it is running correctly. It also allows us to discover any potential issues before they become costly repairs. When you call us for maintenance, routine servicing usually includes:
- Changing humidifier filters
- Checking electrical components
- Cleaning the unit
- Running a test cycle to check for proper operation
