How does humidity AFFECT my comfort?
Since the air in your home is always trying to reach its saturation point, it will absorb water wherever it’s found. That means it is stealing moisture from the bodies of you and your children, your pets, your furniture and even your house plants. By giving up moisture to the air, your skin, throat and nasal passages dry out and crack, leading to various physical discomforts.
That’s why many doctors recommend humidifiers for allergy and asthma sufferers. Research has shown that 30% – 60% relative humidity is ideal. Outside this range, bacteria, fungi, viruses and mites thrive and multiply. As these creatures increase in number, so does your risk of being adversely affected.

General Humidifiers are the standard plenum mount with by-pass duct. Works with air blowing over a moist evaporator pad to deliver humidity into the home.
Honeywell Steam Humidifiers deliver steam into the duct system. They can work with or without a heat source running. The steam humidifiers work well with high efficiency gas furnaces and heat pumps because they don't require extremely hot air to increase the absorption off the evaporator pad.
