In my last post, I quoted a do-it-yourselfer who installed his own humidifier. I quoted him because he pointed out the energy savings story behind proper humidity levels; an often overlooked benefit of controlling your humidity.
I also discouraged DIY installs. Here's another perfect example. Here, the guy explains how badly the previous owner of his house had botched a humidifier install, so now HE'S going to "do it right". And yet, read how many questions this genius has! Oh yeah. He's real sure of himself! After reading this, how confident are YOU that it'll be done right!?
Hey, nothing wrong with DIY in general. Contractors love em because when the jobs get botched, guess who gets called to fix it? That's right! The contractor. After calling the "buddy down the street who knows alot about alot of stuff", or the "uncle who does his own electrical", or that "what's-his-name-handyman"....all to save a buck.....the right answer is to call a pro.
