Why You Need a Humidifier

Your body is mostly comprised of water, which means that it relies on a certain balance of moisture in the air in order to operate properly. When that moisture level drops, you’ll start to notice certain issues. Your skin will dry out and crack, as well as the mucous membranes in your nose. These serve as your body’s first line of defense against infection by disease, which means that the drier your air is, the easier it will be for you to get sick. This is especially common in California, which is a more arid environment. A whole house humidifier is the best way to relieve low humidity in your home.

How Humidifiers Work

Humidifiers are typically installed in the ductwork of your home, where they can effectively treat all air that flows through them. There are a couple of different methods used by humidifiers to correct the moisture imbalance in your home’s air. Vaporizers work by evaporating water into steam, then releasing it into the ducts. This is a more complex method for humidification, but it is quite popular.

Misters are another very popular humidifier type. Misters simply release a fine spray of water particles into the ducts at regular intervals. It’s a simple solution, but it absolutely works. The type of humidifier you install in your home should depend on the recommendation of your technician. He or she will be able to determine the best humidifier for your needs.

We Install and Service Humidifiers

Installing a humidifier in your home successfully should always be left to professionals. They require access to the ducts in a very specific point, in order to properly humidify the entire home. They will also need to have access to the home’s power grid, in order to release water into the ducts. You should never attempt to do your own electrical work without professional training and equipment. The chances of injury or death are too great.
