Whole-house humidifiers add controlled moisture to HVAC systems to reduce dry-air discomfort, protect wood and instruments, and limit static. Target 30-50% RH, use proper installation and annual maintenance, and avoid over-humidifying to prevent mold.
Whole-house humidifiers improve comfort, reduce static, and protect wood and instruments when properly sized and maintained. Choose the right type - bypass, fan-powered, or steam - monitor humidity (about 30-50%), and follow maintenance to avoid mold.
Choose the right humidifier for your space by matching type and capacity, prioritizing built-in humidity control and regular cleaning to prevent mold and mineral buildup.
