Improving your home’s air quality is sometimes as simple as opening doors or windows, utilizing kitchen and bathroom exhaust fans, and keeping your home as tidy and dust-free as possible without the use of cleaners containing volatile organic compounds. In many cases, however, upgrading your home’s equipment with specialized indoor air quality systems and equipment may be necessary to achieve a healthy indoor environment. Consider these options to upgrade your home’s indoor air quality:
Investing in an air filtration system offers several advantages, including:
Whole-house humidifiers and dehumidifiers are add-ons to your HVAC system that address the same underlying problem, your home’s humidity levels, but in opposite ways. In the simplest terms, humidifiers add moisture to the air, while dehumidifiers draw moisture out.
Whole-house humidifiers increase humidity levels throughout your home by releasing water vapor into the air. There are different kinds of humidifiers available, such as electric, steam, and bypass. They come with varying tank capacities and features. These systems attach to your ductwork to circulate conditioned air where it’s needed. If your HVAC system alone isn’t up to the task, humidifiers offer improved comfort in dry summer climates or during heavy furnace use in the winter, both of which can lower your home’s humidity level. By increasing the humidity, these systems may also support improved respiratory health, promote better sleep, alleviate dry skin, and even keep your house plants thriving. Humidifiers also reduce strain on your HVAC system, resulting in less wear, reduced energy consumption, and lower utility bills. If your home’s humidity falls below 30%, your household may experience these common signs:
Like humidifiers, whole-house dehumidifiers integrate with your existing HVAC system to draw excess moisture from indoor air and regulate humidity levels. These systems draw warm and humid air over cooling coils, and the resulting condensation drips into a collection tank. The dehumidifier then returns the air to your ventilation system for distribution throughout your home. Many systems include precise humidity control settings, automated operation, and smart features.
Lowering indoor humidity increases comfort in several ways. By removing excess moisture, your HVAC system doesn’t have to work as hard to heat or cool your indoor air, leading to increased efficiency and lower utility bills. Dehumidifiers also discourage mold and mildew growth, reduce musty odors, and eliminate most dust mites and spores. They’re ideal for homes in humid climates or otherwise struggling with excessive moisture due to ventilation problems, insufficient HVAC capacity, poor window and door sealing, and more.
High humidity is associated with many of the same health problems as low humidity, such as increased allergies or asthma symptoms. It also leads to damp spots and water stains, mold, peeling paint, and damaged structures.
