In Chicago and the surrounding suburbs, you are used to extreme temps, frigid to sweltering. But also moist and bone-dry. We are always exposed to dry air. To some of us, it feels better than humid air, but it can also negatively affect our health and home. If you suffer from constant dry eyes, dry skin, or dry nasal passages and you find that people in your home battle with breathing issues, you may need to think about adding moisture to the air with a whole house humidifier.

The right humidity levels can help make everyone in your Arizona home more comfortable. If you would like to learn more about installing a humidifier in Burr Ridge, Hinsdale, Willowbrook or the surrounding areas, contact us at JC Heating & Cooling!

• Dry, itchy skin
• Breathing problems
• Upper respiratory infections
• Dried-out & buckling wood furniture
• Buckling wood floors

Adding more moisture to your home will help with your family’s health and can also help protect your home’s furnishings and floors. If you want to install a whole-house dehumidifier in your Chicago home today!

Types of Humidifiers We Can Install

A great way to add moisture to the air in your home is by using a humidifier. There are two basic types of humidifiers we recommend to Illinois homeowners.

Portable Humidifiers

Portable humidifiers can be moved from room to room. They need to be refilled regularly and, if not cleaned out properly, they can quickly grow mold and mildew. While these humidifiers can be great for a single space like a bedroom or living room, they will not help your whole home.

Whole-House Humidifiers

Whole house humidifiers work to get the right moisture levels throughout your whole home. They operate together with your furnace to put humidity back into your indoor air. Water vapor is sent into your system’s ducts and then gets reciprocated into your home. Humidity levels are monitored to make sure your home is getting a healthy amount of moisture. These models do not need to be refilled consistently and they are much easier to clean than portable models. They do cost more to purchase and install; however, they cover your whole home, leaving every area comfortable.
