Winter in Minnesota brings bitter cold and dry air. That dryness does more than make you uncomfortable. It causes dry skin, sore throats, and itchy eyes. It also makes it easier for viruses to spread. You can improve your health and comfort by adding a humidifier to your home. Residential Heating and Air Conditioning specializes in humidity control services, including installing whole-house humidifiers in Minneapolis and surrounding areas.
Why Dry Air in Winter is a Problem
When the temperature drops, the air holds less moisture. Heating systems dry the air even more. This creates problems for both your health and your home. Dry skin and irritation are common. You may also feel colder because your body loses heat faster in dry air.
Low humidity also makes it easier for germs to travel. Viruses love dry conditions. This is one reason people tend to get sick more often in winter. Your home also suffers. Dry air pulls moisture from wood floors, furniture, and paint, causing cracks and damage.
How Whole-House Humidifiers Help
Whole-house humidifiers are the best way to fight dry air. Unlike portable units, they treat the entire home, not just one room. A whole-house humidifier connects to your HVAC system and delivers moisture through the ductwork. You control the humidity with your thermostat.
Adding a humidifier provides many benefits. Balanced indoor humidity helps keep your skin and respiratory system healthy. You’ll notice less dryness in your nose, throat, and eyes. It also makes your home feel warmer, so you can lower the thermostat and save on heating costs. Protecting wood floors and furniture from damage is another plus.
