4 Benefits Of A Whole House Humidifier

During the summer months, you and your home may suffer from too much humidity. However, in the winter months, most people have the opposite problem. Adding humidity to your home could increase your comfort, improve indoor air quality and energy efficiency. Although we still have a few more weeks of warm, summer weather, now's the time to prepare for the winter season. Your Lake of the Ozarks HVAC company is here to explain the benefits of installing a whole house humidifier. 


1. Health


Overly dry environments can increase the likelihood of infections. In addition, many viruses thrive in low-humidity environments. Installing a whole house humidifier can decrease your chances of catching the flu, colds and other respiratory ailments. Add humidity to the air and improve your health and well-being.  

2. Comfort


The winter months can really take a toll on our bodies. The cold weather can make our skin dry and itchy. Overly dry air can also aggravate asthma and allergy symptoms and lead to dry noses and sore throats. Adding moisture to the air with a whole house humidifier can help eliminate these problems. 

3. Protect Your Home


Dry air can do a lot of damage to your home. It can split wood floors, crack paint, peel wallpaper, ruin furniture and dry out instruments like pianos. Supplying your home with the proper amount of humidity can protect the contents of your home from the adverse effects of dry air. 

4. Energy Efficiency 


Turning up the thermostat will raise the temperature in your home, but it may not make your feel warmer. Installing a whole house humidifier in your home can help you feel warmer at lower temperatures. According to the Environmental Protection Agency, you can save up to 4 percent on your heating bill for every degree you lower your thermostat. 

Types of Whole House Humidifiers

This steam humidifier offers a more "dialed-in" level of humidity control to better protect fine furnishings and keep you comfortable for those dry seasons. With up to 34 gallons daily output, you can enjoy the comfort with confidence knowing it's built to handle higher square footage interiors. 

Preferred Series Large Fan-powered Humidifier
