The Importance of Humidity Control
Indoor humidity levels significantly impact your comfort, health, and even your home's structural integrity. Ideal humidity levels typically range from 30% to 50%. When levels drop below this range, the air becomes dry, leading to various issues such as:
- Respiratory Problems: Dry air can cause or exacerbate respiratory issues, including asthma, bronchitis, and sinusitis.
- Skin Irritation: Low humidity can lead to dry skin, chapped lips, and other dermatological issues.
- Damage to Wooden Furniture: Dry air can cause wood to crack and warp, damaging your furniture and floors.
- Static Electricity: Low humidity levels can increase static electricity, leading to minor shocks and damage to electronic devices.
By installing a humidifier, you can mitigate these problems, ensuring a healthier and more comfortable indoor environment.
Types of Humidifiers We Offer
At Aire Serv of Northeastern Minnesota, we provide a range of humidifiers tailored to meet the unique needs of your home:
- Central Humidifiers: These are integrated directly into your home's HVAC system, providing consistent humidity levels throughout your entire house. Central humidifiers are ideal for larger homes and those looking for a seamless, maintenance-free solution.
- Evaporative Humidifiers: These units use a fan to blow air through a wet wick or filter, adding moisture to the air. They are energy-efficient and suitable for medium to large rooms.
- Steam Vaporizers: These humidifiers heat water to create steam, which is cooled before being released into the air. Steam vaporizers are highly effective and can also help alleviate respiratory issues.
- Ultrasonic Humidifiers: Using ultrasonic vibrations, these humidifiers create a fine mist dispersed into the air. They are quiet, efficient, and ideal for bedrooms or smaller spaces.
Humidifier Repair
Although regular maintenance and cleaning will help ensure your humidifier stays in good working order, systems may occasionally require repair over time. Odors of mold or mildew, banging noises, or inconsistent operation are all signs your humidifier requires service.
Common home humidifier repairs include:
- Leaks or broken seals
- Loose wiring or parts
- Faulty humidistat, solenoid valve, or distribution tray
- Malfunctioning fan, motor, belt, control board, or electrical setup
- Clogs in the drain line, valves, or filters
- Lack of lubrication
Whether these issues stem from improper care or wear and tear, you can rely on our team to help you repair your unit.
Humidifier Replacement
To ensure better air quality and humidity control in your home, it’s important to recognize when your humidifier is damaged beyond repair.
Signs your humidifier is beyond repair include:
- A steady decrease in air quality (heightened allergies, dry air, musty smells)
- Frequent or increasingly costly repairs
- Difficult-to-remove mineral deposits forming
- Decreased unit efficiency despite regular maintenance
- The unit is over 10 years old
Our team may identify a better unit type for your home when replacing your unit. We’ll make recommendations on make, model, and use to ensure you’re getting the most out of your unit.
