Is a Humidifier Right for You?

Humidifiers are valuable additions to any home, primarily because evidence shows that dry air environments can increase the likelihood of viral infections. Additionally, look out for specific signs indicating a greater need for a humidifier in your home, such as static electricity on carpets and doorknobs. Health issues like dry skin, headaches, and fatigue during winter may also suggest that your home’s relative humidity is too low.

Advantages of Installing a Humidifier in Your Strafford Home

Winter air is naturally drier, and indoor heating can exacerbate this dryness. A humidifier can counteract this by adding moisture to the air, allowing you to feel comfortable at lower temperatures and potentially reducing heating costs. Proper humidity levels can also improve your comfort and sleep quality. Dry air can lead to respiratory issues, dry skin, eye irritation, throat discomfort, and other problems. Maintaining optimal humidity levels can also protect your Strafford, PA home from damage to walls, floors, and windows.

How Humidifiers Work

Relative humidity (RH) indicates the amount of moisture in the air relative to the temperature. Low RH means you'll need to raise the temperature to stay comfortable and could face health issues. Humidifiers address this by increasing the moisture content in the air, targeting the ideal RH range of 30% to 50% as advised by the EPA. Whole-home humidifiers are often installed in the ductwork of your Strafford home, either on the supply or return side of your furnace or heat pump, and connect directly to your water supply. They use a humidifier pad, rotating drum, or steam system to introduce moisture.

The Importance of Indoor Air Quality and Proper Humidity Levels

According to the EPA, indoor air pollution ranks as one of the major health threats in the U.S. Without effective filtration, your home's air can be as contaminated as, or even more so than, outdoor air. Ensuring good indoor air quality can improve your sleep and lower your chances of getting sick right away, while also offering long-term health benefits by decreasing the risk of serious heart and respiratory diseases.

Other Indoor Air Quality Solutions

A humidifier is just one tool we use to boost and maintain indoor air quality. Sanks Mechanical also specializes in the installation, maintenance, and repair of air scrubbers, air filters, UVC air purifiers, and dehumidifiers.

Air Scrubbers

An air scrubber is a device that is installed in your ductwork that eliminates 99.9% of airborne contaminants but is also able to eliminate surface contaminants. This happens through a catalytic process that charges hydrogen and oxygen clusters into antimicrobial agents.

Air Filters

You can opt for an air filter that integrates with your existing HVAC equipment or a standalone system. These devices typically have a high-efficiency particulate absorbing filter, and a medical-grade HEPA filter will remove 99.97% of airborne particles down to 0.1 microns in size.

UVC Air Purifiers

UVC air purifiers use ultraviolet light to eliminate contaminants. This solution does not eliminate particulate matter but is very effective at removing viruses, bacteria, odors, VOCs, and so forth. You also have the option of devices that also have a HEPA filter in order to remove particulates.

Dehumidifiers

Dehumidifiers are the opposite of humidifiers in that they remove moisture from the air in order to achieve the optimal RH. These devices are quite beneficial for your health and comfort during summer and can save you money by reducing the workload and wear on your air conditioner or heat pump.
