Humidifiers & Service in Westfield, NJ and the Surrounding Area

It’s no secret that winters in New Jersey can get particularly cold, and very dry. This dryness can actually contribute to a few different problems for not only your home, but also for your health. A lack of sufficient moisture in the air is one of the most common issues we face during the heating season.

We strongly urge homeowners in Westfield, NJ and the surrounding area to consider the use of a whole-house humidifier. The whole-house solution allows you to adequately humidify the air in your home, making you more comfortable and ultimately healthier.

Remember, just like any other indoor air quality product, whole-house humidifiers require expert installation, repairs, maintenance, and replacement services. Whether you are purchasing a brand new system or replacing an outdated humidifier, Air Creations, Inc. is here to help. Call us today to discuss your options. You can trust that we do it right.

Distinguishing Between Evaporative and Steam Humidifiers

There are many benefits to whole–house humidification, which we’ve highlighted below. However, do you know the difference between an evaporative and steam humidifier? More so, do you know which one is the best humidifier for you and your home?

Steam humidifiers boil water, which creates a steam. This steam is introduced into your air stream through a dispersion tube mounted in the ducts. The benefit of this type of humidifier is that it does not require a forced–air HVAC system in order to operate. However, they do cost a bit more than their evaporative counterparts.

Evaporative humidifiers work by using forced air heat to provide pure vapor humidity throughout your home. This prevents minerals from entering your home’s air stream. The biggest advantage to this system is that it costs less and uses less electricity. However, they do require a forced air system in order to function.

Why Whole–House Humidification Is Best

The signs that your air does not have a sufficient amount of moisture in it are not always obvious. In fact, most homeowners would not even immediately connect home and health problems to a lack of humidity. However, they may notice that over time they suffer from dry skin and other ill health effects.

Another sign of low humidity is property damage such as cracking wallpaper or chipping paint. You might even notice the wood in your home splitting as a result of dry air. By using a whole–house humidifier, you can humidify the air throughout your entire living space. You don’t have to worry about moving a unit around or continually refilling it with water.
