Humidity! What’s the big deal?
When cold, dry air enters your home and is warmed, the relative humidity can drop to 5%. The EPA recommends a year-round 50% humidity level for health and comfort. While air conditioning removes moisture in summer, heating in winter reduces humidity. Striking a balance between 30% and 60% relative humidity is crucial, as extremes, like the Sahara Desert’s 25%, impact both health and comfort.

You ask, we answer
Too little humidity can cause the drying out of your skin, throat and nasal passages, leading to various physical discomforts, while too much humidity can cause the growth of bacteria, fungi, mold, viruses and mites. Studies shows that 30% – 60% relative humidity is ideal for most homes.
Choosing a humidifier? Consider your space size. Whole house options like bypass, flow-through, or drum humidifiers connect to HVAC systems, covering over 3,000 sq ft. No need to refill; they draw water directly from your home’s supply.
Virtually everything in your home made from wood contains some moisture. As dry air sucks that moisture out, the wood shrinks and cracks. Hardwood floors separate at the seams, furniture shrinks and cracks, and doors warp and no longer fit their frames as the moisture drops off.
When the humidistat senses a need for additional humidity, a measured water flows into the patented distribution tray moistening the evaporator pad thoroughly and uniformly for greatest evaporative efficiency. Dry air, warmed by the furnace, is passed through the wet pad where evaporation occurs and moist, humidified air is circulated throughout the home.
