Whole Home Humidifier HVAC Installation
Is your home’s dry air causing discomfort? Inadequate indoor humidity affects your home and your health. At Allied Air Conditioning & Heating Corporation, we’ve provided Palatine residents with reliable HVAC services, including expert whole-house humidifier installation, for over 55 years.
What Is a Whole House Humidifier?
Unlike portable units that humidify single rooms, whole-house humidifiers integrate directly with your HVAC system. Working with your heating and cooling equipment, these systems automatically maintain ideal humidity levels throughout your home. As Carrier’s only 16-time President’s Award winner in Illinois, Allied expertly installs and services these sophisticated comfort systems.
How Whole House Humidifiers Work
Your humidifier monitors indoor humidity through a device called a humidistat, automatically adjusting moisture levels as needed. When your furnace runs, the humidifier adds water vapor to warm air flowing through your ductwork. This systematic approach maintains consistent humidity levels in every room of your house.
Types of Whole House Humidifiers
Allied installs and services several types of Carrier humidifiers, each with unique advantages:
Steam Humidifiers
The most powerful option, steam humidifiers create pure water vapor through electric heating. They are ideal for larger homes requiring maximum humidity control.
Bypass Humidifiers
These energy-efficient systems use your furnace’s heat to evaporate water. Bypass humidifiers balance power with affordability and are perfect for most residential applications.
Fan-Powered Humidifiers
Independent fan systems provide consistent humidity. These humidifiers are unique because they can operate even if your furnace is off. Fan-powered humidifiers are ideal for homes that need year-round humidity control.
