Humidifiers and Dehumidifiers

Is a Humidifier or Dehumidifier Important?

Too much moisture can be a bad thing for any home, but no moisture at all is even worse. In the winter months when heating systems are running, there may be little to no moisture in the air.

This can cause discomfort and health concerns. Whole-house humidifiers work in conjunction with your HVAC system. They regulate moisture levels to ensure they are kept at an optimal level. 

Benefits of a Humidification System

• Improved air quality
• Protects furnishings
• Improved skin and health
• Fewer allergies and sickness
• Lowers bacteria and impurities

A whole-home humidifier or dehumidifier from the service experts at Glen Ellyn Heating and Cooling is the most beneficial method of restoring comfort and improving air quality throughout your entire living space.

Proper humidity saves energy because adding supplemental moisture allows for a lower thermostat temperature while maintaining comfort. Running a dehumidifier in the summer means your air conditioner doesn’t have to work as hard to cool the air and remove moisture.

Dehumidifiers are particularly important for basements that get moisture in them. If your basement feels damp or smells musty, a dehumidifier from Glen Ellyn Heating and Cooling can be an important addition to your total HVAC system for a healthy home all year round.
