Follow on Google News | Home and Health Benefits of HumidifiersWhole-House Humidifiers Offer Both Health and Home Benefits
Dry air poses a variety of health concerns, especially to those who suffer from asthma and allergies. While we all know dry air irritates our eyes, throat, lungs and skin; it can also pose greater health concerns such as interfering with our body's ability to intake sufficient amounts of oxygen. Dry air makes the uptake of oxygen and its transfer into the blood stream more difficult on our body; causing us to feel fatigued, have reduced concentration, and suffer from headaches- all symptoms of a reduced oxygen supply. Within our homes, humidification reduces levels of dust, stops the build-up of static electricity, and prevents hardwood floors from cracking. A whole-house humidification system is the best solution for all homeowners seeking to increase the humidification level in their homes up to 50%. Increased moisture adds comfort to our daily lives and adds comfort to our wallets by lowering energy costs as well. Because warm-moist air feels warmer than warm-dry air, homeowners can typically lower their thermostats, saving up to 4% on their heating bill for every degree lowered- averaging a savings of 12%. Whole-house humidifiers are easy to maintain and lack the risk of growing mold and bacteria that is common to small room-humidifier units. Rather than cleaning, disinfecting, and refilling your tank everyday, whole-house humidifiers are limited in their required maintenance to replacing the pad once a year- which your DALCO service technician can do during your annual furnace tune-up. # # # DALCO installs only the most energy-efficient heating and cooling equipment available and prides itself in offering exceptional service.
