Affordable Whole-Home Humidifier Installation
If you are looking to maintain healthy levels of humidity in your home during winter, we offer a whole line of humidifiers, including whole-home humidifiers, that are conducive to all types of homes and all budgets. Because the ideal relative level of humidity in a home should be between 30 and 50%, these devices are helpful. If humidity levels are too high, a home is at risk of developing mildew and mold. If it’s too low, it can damage woodwork and make you more susceptible to static electricity, in addition to health issues like dry skin, breathing and sleeping problems, and bloody noses, etc.
If you’re looking to improve humidity levels in your home, our technicians at Five Star Heating & Cooling would be happy to set you up with a humidifier. Schedule humidifier services with us today!
4 Benefits of a Residential Humidifier
If you need to increase the humidity level in your home (especially in the winter), we have a line of humidifiers that work with all budgets, priced affordably. Experts say the ideal relative humidity level is between 30% and 50%. If your level is too low or too high, you’ll notice issues like mildew, mold, dry skin, bloody noses, etc.
Overall Health Benefits
Humidifiers can help people who not only have dry skin but also irritated eyes, allergies, frequent coughs, bloody noses, sinus headaches, and cracked lips.
Preventing Illness
Authors of one study noted that humidifiers might reduce the risk of catching the flu. After adding the influenza virus to the air with a simulated cough, researchers found that humidity levels above 40 percent rapidly deactivated virus particles, making them much less likely to be infectious.
Reduce Snoring Frequency
Increasing the amount of moisture in the air can also reduce snoring. If the air is dry, a person’s airways are less likely to be adequately lubricated, making snoring worse. Adding humidity to the atmosphere by running a humidifier at night may help to relieve snoring symptoms.
Keeping Skin and Hair Moist
Some people see their skin, lips, and hair become dry and fragile from the cold winter air outside. Using a humidifier to add moisture to the indoor air may help reduce dry, cracked skin.
