Whole House Humidification
Breathe Easy with Aprilaire
Increased humidification in your home can have lots of beneficial effects.
A dry home is an unhealthy home
According to The American Society of Otolaryngology, dry air can make people more susceptible to infection. In addition, drier air can aggravate allergy and asthma symptoms.
Low humidity is bad for your house
In your home, dry air can cause your furniture to draw in and split, walls, woodwork, even hardwood floors can crack! “Humidifiers are commonly used in homes to relieve the physical discomforts of dry nose, throat, lips, and skin. The moisture they add to dry air also helps alleviate common nuisances brought on by winter heating, such as static electricity, splitting woodwork and cracks in paint and furniture.”
-U.S. Environmental Protection Agency
Low humidification may well cause you higher energy costs
A drier house can make you feel too cold at normal temperatures, so you turn up the thermostat. This leads to higher energy bills. Simply increasing the humidity increases the amount of heat your air can retain. This will allow your thermostat to stay down and save you money. According to the EPA, every degree you lower your thermostat can result in 4% savings on your heating bill.
