Which type of humidifier is right for your home depends on a combination of your needs and a number of systematic factors and the only way to really know is to have a heating and cooling expert from Adam Home Services size your home. The three most common types of humidifiers for your HVAC system are fan-powered, bypass humidifiers, and steam humidifiers. Which is right for your home, you will need a Adam Home Services professional to determine, but fan-powered humidifiers are a very common choice. Fan-powered humidifiers work by using a fan to blow air across an evaporative pad. The evaporating water then passes through your ductwork and is output with the air. Bypass systems work similarly; the only difference is that they use the blower motor of your furnace instead of their own fans to accomplish the same effect. While bypass humidifiers are quieter, they tend to be slightly less efficient than their counterparts. Steam humidifiers cost the most to operate and maintain, but generally are the most efficient. Steam humidifiers function by heating water and then dispersing it as steam.
Indications that you may need a humidifier in your HVAC system are dry hair, dry skin, low humidity, itchy and flaky skin, especially during the winter, frequent colds and sinus infections, and of course, bloody noses. Less obvious indications that your home is in need of a humidifier are stuck doors, creaky floors, and any type of wood object in your home warping. If you notice any of these signs in your home, call Adam Home Services to see about installing a humidifier today.
No, you do not need both a humidifier and a dehumidifier. Which is best for you and your home can only really be determined by a professional heating and cooling expert at Adam Home Services. Generally speaking, though, if your house is above 50% humidity then a dehumidifier is appropriate. On the other hand, if humidity levels are below 30%, a humidifier is needed.
