What is a Humidifier?

Humidifiers are appliances that add moisture to the air in a dwelling to keep the air from drying out. Humidifiers can be for single rooms, or small areas, or for entire homes or buildings. Whole-home humidifiers work with existing HVAC equipment to add humidified air to outgoing air before it goes into throughout the ductwork and into the home. They can also work independently of your HVAC equipment to maintain humidity levels even when the furnace or air handler isn’t in use as a stand alone product.

Types of Humidifiers

If your home is too dry, you should consider investing in a humidifier to add moisture to the air. Centerville Heating & Cooling offers a line of humidifiers to help you optimize your home heating system in the winter and relieve dry air and low humidity issues such as wood damage, chapped lips, dry skin, flu symptoms, and allergy and asthma flare-ups. Below are the different types of humidifiers available: 

Central Humidifier

Central or whole-home humidification units are installed directly into a homeowner’s HVAC system, effectively humidifying the dwelling evenly throughout. 

Evaporator Humidifier

These single units add moisture to the room it is placed in. Similar to how a boiling pot of water evaporates and sends moisture to the air, an evaporator humidifier works the same way. They are small and relatively inexpensive options. However, they’re only intended for a small area.

Impeller Humidifier

These are also called a “cool mist humidifier.” They utilize a rotating disc that emits water through a diffuser. This breaks larger droplets up into a fine mist. They are considered a child-friendly option, and require minimal energy to humidify a larger area. The downside is that they can be noisy and a home for bacteria, which tends to gather around the filter.

Steam Vaporizers

These portable units can be found at your area drugstore or online but keep in mind, they are known to cause burns. Be careful using them if you have pets or small children.

Benefits of Humidifier Installation

Reduce the risk of illness

Bacteria and viruses can’t travel as well in moist air. It is possible that using a humidifier might prevent you from catching a bug during the cold season. In any case, dry air can cause a host of health-related problems.

Comfortable sinuses

Have you ever woken up with a dry nose that felt stiff during the winter? Even if you don’t have a cold, winter air dries out the sinuses and lowers one’s immunity to airborne and other bacteria.  More moisture in the air means more comfortable sinuses.

Prevents morning sore throat

Because overly dry air affects your vocal cords, it can leave you with a dry, scratchy throat in the morning. Keeping the air moist and maintaining humidity levels during the winter helps provide relief to your vocal cords, especially while you sleep.

Reduce heating Costs

Throughout the summer months the more the humidity we have in the air, the warmer it feels in our homes. Moisture makes it feel warmer.  Because of this, adding humidity to the air in your home during the winter months will save you money on your heating bills.

Protect Furniture

Not enough moisture in the air in your home can cause wood furnishing, woodwork, and wood flooring to crack and even split. Using a humidifier helps preserve the integrity of the wood in your home.

Better Sleep

If you or someone in your home snores at night, it might be related to dry sinuses, which makes snoring worse.  A moist environment that has ideal humidity levels can soothe dry sinuses, lower snoring levels and bring you the comfort conducive to a good night’s sleep.

FAQ

General Humidifier FAQ

What is the ideal level of humidity to maintain?

The ideal level of humidity to maintain in an interior space largely depends on a variety of factors, but generally should range from 30% to 50%. This range is optimal for maintaining good air quality and comfort and is also often best for the health of those who occupy the space.

When it comes to indoor air quality, proper humidity is essential.

What size humidifier do I need?
When it comes to determining what size humidifier you need, there are a few factors to consider. Firstly, the size of the room in which you will be using the humidifier is a major factor to consider. A small or medium-sized room might only need an ultrasonic humidifier with a capacity of up to 3 gallons, while a larger room will need something larger. It all depends on the square footage area you want to humidify. Most humidifiers show the square footage coverage range with their product’s specifications.
How much upkeep do humidifiers require?
Humidifiers require some upkeep in order to ensure they are working at their optimal level and producing the desired effects. Generally, this upkeep consists of weekly cleaning of the unit, including changing out any water that has been used inside. This is an important step as it helps prevent any bacteria or mold from developing inside the unit, which can cause health issues. Whole-house humidifiers require minimal work to maintain the humidity level in your residence. Portable humidifiers require constant upkeep, including constantly cleaning and filling the reservoir.
