Humidifiers For When Your Kansas City, MO Home's Air Needs A Little More
There may be nothing more satisfying on a crisp, cool day than settling into your favorite chair with a hot beverage in your warm, cozy home. Your heating system keeps the house at a comfortable temperature, but you notice that the air feels drier. With chapped lips and itchy skin, you may start feeling that your body is drying out as well! Dry air isn’t a result of running your furnace; it’s simply that outdoor air in cooler temperatures is less humid.
In short, cold air equals dry air, and we certainly know our Kansas City weather can be chilly! To keep you and your family feeling your best, consider installing a whole house humidifier with the help of LBA Services. Our technicians can help you choose the right unit and dial it in so you've got the perfect level of humidity to keep your home comfortable.
What Are The Benefits Of A Whole Home Humidifier?
- Comfort - A whole house humidifier can help you combat the dry nose, scratchy throat and itchy skin that many people experience in the winter.
- Health - Viruses flourish in dry air. A humidifier can curtail the frequency of winter colds and flu.
- Energy Savings - Humid air helps you feel warmer at lower temperatures. So you may be able to set the thermostat lower, still feel warm and cut down on energy costs.
- Structural Integrity - Your home doesn’t like dry air any more than you do. Dry air can cause creaking floorboards, chipping paint and even damage to furniture and electronics. Ideally, your home’s humidity level would be about 50% all year long to benefit both your health and the home’s structure.
How Does A Whole Home Humidifier Work?
Unlike a portable humidifier for a room, a whole house humidifier is a more sophisticated piece of technology installed by an HVAC company as part of your heating and air conditioning system. Once installed, your thermostat or a humidity control unit keeps the air throughout the house at a steady humidity level all year long.
