Control Your Oakville Homes Comfort with a Whole-Home Humidifier System

Your health can not be as good when humidity levels are off in your Oakville home.

Low humidity levels can make your house come across as colder than it really is. Dry air can also make your skin and lips feel dry—and make you more likely to get sick. And excess humidity can cause water damage and mold growth.

A whole-home humidifier or dehumidifier from Abbey Air Service Experts Heating & Air Conditioning is the most practical approach to restoring comfort and improving air quality in your house.

Our Experts can help you locate the right energy-efficient unit for your home. And we’ll support it with a 100% Satisfaction Guarantee for a year.^*

12 Signs Your Home’s Humidity Level is Off

The standard setting for indoor humidity is 40–60 percent. You can determine it with a smart thermostat or digital humidity device.

If you don’t own these devices, there are a couple clues your home’s humidity level is out of balance:

Humidity is Too Low

1. Repeat bloody noses
2. Cracked lips
3. Itchy skin, eyes or throat
4. Persistent cold or flu symptoms
5. Damage to wood flooring or furniture
6. Excessive static electricity

Humidity is Too High

1. Mold growth
2. Windows with fog
3. Musty odors
4. Water damage or stains
5. Decaying wood
6. Increased allergy symptoms

How a Whole Home Humidifier or Dehumidifier Works

We install a whole-home dehumidifier or humidifier as part of your HVAC system and air ducting. It controls humidity as your furnace, heat pump or air conditioner runs.

The humidifier has a pad and rotating drum or steaming system to improve moisture levels. The dehumidifier takes in moist air and cools it. Then it shifts additional moisture into a pan or drain.

Both systems are more efficient than their compact counterparts, which can only take care of a single room at a time. A whole-home system also involves much less maintenance than a mobile dehumidifier or humidifier.
