Why You Should Use a Humidifier in Winter
A humidifier can help your Pine Bluff, Arkansas, home conserve energy, especially during winter. Using your heater can make the air inside your house drier. Having a whole-home humidifier installed in your ductwork by a professional can increase your comfort, lower your utility bills and make your home healthier.
More Comfort
Using a humidifier can make you and your family members feel warmer and more comfortable. It can also improve your sleep and stop you or your spouse from snoring. It’ll help you keep your home looking welcoming by preventing peeling paint or cracks in wood floors and furniture. Regulating your home’s humidity better can even keep your floors from creaking and waking people up when you get a midnight snack.
Lower Utility Bills
If a humidifier can make your house feel less chilly, you’ll be able to keep your thermostat set at a lower temperature without becoming uncomfortable. Your HVAC system won’t need to use as much energy. As a result, you’ll decrease your utility bills. Your heater and air conditioner will last longer because of reduced wear, and your new humidifier will pay for itself with energy savings and a higher value for your home.
A Healthier Home
Dry air can cause dry skin, asthma symptoms, chapped lips, sore throats, nosebleeds, eye irritation and other health problems. Viruses often travel between people faster when the air is dry. People spend more time inside in winter, so symptoms often develop fast. A humidifier will help you avoid these issues and recover from colds quickly. It can even make your houseplants healthier and keep you from needing to water them as often.
