For Your Furnace, Choosing the Best Whole-Home Humidifier

Soon we'll be adjusting our thermostats to provide warmer air and keep our homes comfy throughout the colder months. Additionally, warmer air is dryer air, which can be detrimental to our general health. Perhaps you've never considered keeping an eye on the humidity levels in your house, or perhaps you're trying to find the ideal balance. We've discussed the advantages of a whole-home humidifier, including how it can improve your skin and reduce your risk of illness. However, how can you determine which system is ideal for your family?

If you are unfamiliar, a whole-home humidifier uses water that is taken straight from your water supply, and the water panel only needs to be changed a few times during the heating season. The initial costs are higher, but over time there is less maintenance, less energy use, and mold avoidance.

When buying a whole-home humidifier, there are a few things to keep in mind.

Size:

The size and capacity of the humidifier are determined by how many gallons it uses each day. Take your total floor space and multiply it by the height of your ceiling to determine the size you require. This will serve as a guide as you weigh your options and will help decide how many gallons per hour are required.

Budget:

While the humidifier equipment has upfront costs associated with it, it's also crucial to consider how much money will be spent on operation and upkeep. There are a variety of types that can help you satisfy your home's needs while staying within your comfortable spending limit.
