Frigidaire Whole Home Humidifier

For your family’s health and comfort

Does your home feel dry in the winter?

During winter months your home may be drier than most desert areas. Surprised? The Sahara Desert’s humidity is around 25% and Death Valley is 23%. However, during winter months the average heated home can have a relative humidity as low as 13%.

What does dry air do?

Dry air may actually be costing you additional money in higher utility bills. By maintaining a 35% humidity level your home will feel just as warm at 69 degrees, as it does at 72 degrees with a 19% relative humidity.

Dry air is the source of many complaints. Doctors often mention dry air as one of the causes for nose, throat and skin discomfort. Dry air is also responsible for static electricity and can damage furniture and woodwork. It is directly responsible for causing floors and trim to separate, walls and ceilings to crack. In addition, dry air harms expensive musical instruments and electronic equipment such as computers.

The Humidistat works in conjunction with your humidifier.

A manual Humidistat allows you to control the humidifier’s operation. You decide what is the most comfortable setting for your family.

The Humidistat works like a thermostat and allows you to set a comfortable level of humidity. In the summer you can set the Humidistat to work with your variable speed cooling system to pull more moisture from the air when humidity is excessive. And in winter months you can adjust the humidity level to allow more moisture in your home, resulting in reduced energy costs, added comfort, and better protection for your home.
