Humidifier installation
During the winter season, the heating system is very stressed, which dries out the air and causes some breathing problems. The humidity level of the air is then reduced to only 30%. In this case, opening windows and patio doors is not enough to humidify the air. On the contrary, indoor air dries out more when the outside temperature is less than or equal to 0°C. The use of an air humidifier is then necessary to regain good air quality.
What is a humidifier?
Why use an air humidifier?
This device makes it possible to soften the air that we breathe when it has become too dry. The air humidifier therefore contributes to better air quality by humidifying them enough to breathe better. This device incorporates a hygrometer to determine the humidity level in any room of the house.
When the humidity level of the air is low, the air humidifier then works automatically to humidify the air. If you breathe too dry air at home, bring this device to remedy it. As the air can be particularly dry in winter, the air humidifier is your best ally to restore air quality. It also helps to better fight against temperature drops. In addition, this device contributes to the hydration of your epidermis.
For all these reasons, the use of an air humidifier is very useful for people sensitive to dry air. The main advantage of this device is that it automatically triggers as soon as the air becomes too dry. Its options allow its user to humidify the air according to his needs. For this device to function properly, it should be placed above a central furnace.
Once the humidifier is activated, it diffuses the water contained in its tank by vaporizing throughout the room. However, make sure that the appliance is not placed next to a wall or furniture to limit the spread of moisture.
How do I install an air humidifier?
The efficiency of the air humidifier is largely based on the air conditioning installation. Most models available on the market are central humidifiers. These are activated using a hygrostat. It is a device similar to the thermostat, but it allows to control humidity. It does practically the same tasks as a thermostat, except that it equips humidifiers. There are thermostats that offer a hygrostat option.
Because humidifiers use water to soften dry air, they require regular and rigorous maintenance to function properly. You can maintain your own humidifier on a regular basis, as this is a relatively simple practice.
Choose the rooms to humidify
In most cases, humidifiers find their place in bedrooms, especially children’s rooms. Depending on your needs or the prescription of your doctor, you can place them in any room of your home.
There may be other reasons for installing a humidifier in specific corners of a dwelling house such as living areas. For example, the living room is a room where you are used to sharing good times with your loved ones. As you spend a lot of time there, it is therefore advisable to install a humidifier so that the ambient air is friendly. Each of your guests will enjoy a well humidified air.
The power of the device must be in accordance with the needs of the room for air humidification. For example, if your home extends to two floors, prefer to install a humidifier in a few rooms on the ground floor to slightly humidify the warm air. Be sure to install humidifiers in the rooms of children or adults who have breathing problems.
How do I install a central humidifier?
You can choose between two types of central humidifiers: the water curtain humidifier and the hot mist humidifier. You must connect them to the ventilation ducts of your home. In this way, the humidity of the air throughout the building remains homogeneous.
