Typically, you want your indoor humidity levels between 30 and 50 percent for ideal comfort. When evaluating installing a new Aprilaire Humidifier, there are a few different options for whole-house humidifier systems, but they all essentially add moisture to the air in your central heating system to increase humidity levels to the desired range.
A properly designed and installed humidification system can make a significant difference in a home, but only if designed and installed properly. A poorly installed system can cause a world of headaches for the unsuspecting homeowner. Improper humidification and design can lead to mold or bacterial growth throughout the home or attic. Equipment failure due to poor installation can lead to leaks and damage ceilings, wall, insulation, framing, or even roofing. A whole-house dehumidifier will work with a heat pump, gas furnace, geothermal system.
