If you’ve been contemplating installing a whole-home humidifier, we’re here to help.
So your first question is probably: do I really need one? If you live in Northern Alberta like we do, the short answer is: yes, probably.
Because of our incredibly long winters, the climate here is very dry. The dryness can not only be uncomfortable, it can also damage some elements of your home. Here are some reasons why you should install a whole-home humidifier in your home:
1. Prevent Dry, Itchy, & Cracked Skin
One of the more obvious reasons as to why you might want humidity in your home is to increase your overall comfort. Adding humidity to your home’s air can reduce your family’s proneness to dry, itchy skin, and cracked lips.
2. Wooden Components of Your Home Require Moisture
When wood is denied humidity, it can shrink and separate, resulting in cracks and gaps. Most people have wood components in their home that likely require consistent humidity to maintain properly.
This includes (but is not limited to):
- Hardwood flooring
- Wod furniture
- Musical instruments
- Framing of the home
In summary:
Whole-home humidifiers are a great choice for most homes looking to increase the humidity, their home’s air quality, and the condition of their wood products.
At Acclaimed!, we offer a range of humidifiers that are affordable, easy to use, and sanitary, in order to keep your home healthy and safe. If you’re interested in getting a quote for a new whole-home humidifier, give our office a call, or follow the link to fill out a contact form below.
