Whole House Humidifiers replenish the humidity in the air in a safe, water vapor form (no mist or droplets). Proper humidity provides a more comfortable living environment at a lower temperature so you can turn down your thermostat for energy savings. More benefits of installing a whole house humidifier include:
- Eliminating air in your home that is too dry and uncomfortable to breathe. This dry air can damage wood products like flooring, pianos, picture frames and cabinetry.
- Dry indoor air can also cause static shock. As you walk across a carpet or slide off upholstered furniture, a static charge builds up in your body and results in a sudden, uncomfortable "zap" of electricity when you touch a piece of metal or other conductor.
- If the relative humidity is below 30%, the air passages in your nose and lower airways in the lungs can become dry and irritated. In people prone to asthma, this can cause an asthma attack. Also, your skin can become dry and cracked, especially if you wash your hands a lot.
- In the winter, it is especially important to add moisture to the air, since dry winter air can drive down the relative humidity level in your home to as low as 15%, which is drier than the air in most deserts.
