Did you know....There are four core benefits to proper levels of relative humidity (RH) in your home: health, comfort, protection, and energy savings. Last month we discussed health and comfort. Let's examine protection today.
Protect Your Home and Valuable Possessions
Proper levels of humidity ensure the protection of your most valuable assets. If your air is too dry, wood floors, trim, and cabinets crack and separate. Home electronics such as computers, TVs, and stereos can be damaged from static electricity. Drywall can crack and wallpaper can peel.
If your air is too humid, your home can suffer from bubbling and cracking paint, peeling wallpaper, mold and mildew growth, and swollen wood framing around doors and windows.
The solution to these issues is proper levels of humidification, which can be achieved by installing a whole-house humidifier or central dehumidifier from Aprilaire. Aprilaire products work in conjunction with your HVAC system to provide the protection you need in every room of your house. No portable unit can do that.
