Determine If You Need a Humidifier or Dehumidifier With Stephens
The air quality in your home is important for your health and well-being. The summer months can cause homes to become humid, while the winter months can bring an uncomfortable dryness. How can these problems be solved? Learn about the differences between a humidifier and dehumidifier, the different types, and how they can positively impact your health with the experts at Stephens Plumbing, Heating & Air Conditioning.
Humidifier
A humidifier is a device that helps increase moisture in the air. Colder weather is often the culprit of dry air as many turn to heat to make their homes warmer or cozier. When the air is dry, individuals may experience respiratory problems, including sinusitis, bronchitis, and asthma. In addition to helping prevent the aforementioned issues, a humidifier can also help keep the skin from drying out and reduce snoring. There are different types of humidifiers, which include cool mist, warm mist, vaporizer, and ultrasonic. By installing one of these devices, you can save money on your energy bills and keep your loved ones healthy.
Dehumidifier
A dehumidifier does the exact opposite of a humidifier; it eliminates or reduces the humidity in any space. How does it do this? When a dehumidifier is on, it extracts water from cold air. If too much humidity is present, it can cause mold to grow and increase the presence of mildew and insects ––all of which are not good for your health. Some of the different types of dehumidifiers include refrigerative, desiccant, and ionic.
