Helpful Facts

During the heating season, many homes without humidifiers have humidity levels below that of the Sahara Desert!

 

The lack of adequate humidity in your home can have damaging affects on various items in your house. The wood in your furniture, floor, moldings, and musical instruments can shrink and crack. Wallpaper can loosen. Your leather items can even dry out.

 

Humidifiers can help keep your family healthy during the winter months. Inadequate humidity levels dry out your sinuses and airways—leaving them more vulnerable to bacteria and viruses.

 

If your thermostat keeps changing from the temperature you set, you probably forgot to hold the temperature and it is reverting back to the program setting.

Humidifiers

You will experience a number of benefits associated with having a humidifier installed with your furnace system. Having proper humidification in your home will help you save money on your utility bills because it both makes you feel warmer and keeps the woodwork around your doors and windows from shrinking to allow cold air to seep into your home.

Aprilaire is known for being the first to make an effective whole-home evaporative, flow-through design humidifier, and they continue to produce the best humidification systems. They now offer the only fully automatic digital humidifier control that monitors outdoor temperature as well as indoor humidity levels so that your home is always at the right humidity level without any effort on your part. Click on the picture of the control to learn more about its features. If necessary, the control can be installed for manual operation.

Check out their six page brochure to learn more about Aprilaire’s humidifiers.

Thermostats

We recommend the Honeywell or White-Rodgers brand of thermostat, though we will install others. Both brands provide a variety of thermostat options and make quality products. No matter what your need, we can find a thermostat that will work for you.

A Few Styles of Interest

Many homes over the past half century have been serviced by the classic round Honeywell thermostat. Honeywell has updated their classic round thermostat to feature a digital display. This digital feature will help you set your temperature with ease and accuracy without the use of a magnifying glass or having to turn on a light.

White-Rodgers blue digital thermostats come with a variety of features—all touch screen, lockable touch screen, programmable, non programmable, two-stage control, and more. If you don’t like the blue screen, they have digital thermostats with different display colors.

You will receive a free programmable thermostat installed with any new furnace or air conditioner installation.

Electronic Air Purifier

Dynamic Air Quality Solutions’ 1” polarized-media electronic air cleaner easily installs in your furnace’s filter slot. This turns your furnace into a high-efficiency whole-house electronic air cleaner. When sub-micro particles and volatile organic compounds pass through your furnace, they become polarized. These polarized particles join up with other polarized particles and become larger. These enlarged particles then become trapped in the disposable low-static polarized media pad.

This electronic cleaner is known for being able to remove difficult odors and provide an efficiency of 97% for particles down to .3 microns in size. To give you and idea as to how small that is, tobacco smoke is .01 to 3 microns in size.
