3 Reasons to Consider a Whole Home Humidifier

Here in Raleigh, humidifiers can be used in homes to help combat the effects of excessively dry air. That can be strange on days then the humidity level swells, but winter days can be dry and even a few hot days in the summer can feel more like a desert than a sauna. A whole-house humidifier can help with that, as well as providing answers to a number of other problems. A trained professional can install such a system in your home if you decide it’s right for you. Here are 3 reasons to consider a humidifier in Raleigh, NC.

• Health and comfort. Low humidifier levels can make your nose and throat irritated, as well as drying out the skin and membrane of the nose. That makes you more vulnerable to colds and similar respiratory condition. A more humid environment can reduce this discomfort, as well as other little irritants like excessive static electricity in your home.
• Preservation. If you have wooden floors or furniture, dry air can cause excessive harm to their finish. It also can peel paint, undo the glue in wallpaper and otherwise accelerate the deterioration of your household furnishings. If you have plants in your home, they dry air can be positively deadly to them. A whole-house humidifier eliminates the worries of such a condition and helps preserve your furnishings for a long time to come.
• Energy efficiency. Dry air can make you feel excessively cold, and your heater will have to work much harder in order to make your home pleasant. That isn’t such a problem right now, but when winter temperatures drop, you’ll be glad you have a humidifier in your home to help keep things warm.

Humidifiers are in low demand right now because it’s the summertime, which makes this a great time to install one.
