Heating your home dries out the air. The resulting dry air absorbs moisture from your skin and everything inside your home.

How does a humidifier work?

An automatic humidifier will connect directly

onto the furnace ductwork in your utility

room. A water line will be connected to the

existing water lines in your house and supplies

water to an automatic valve in the humidifier.

When your humidistat sends the signal for additional moisture in the air and the furnace blower turns on, the water valve opens up and allows fresh water to flow through the humidifier, air will travel through the humidifier evaporating moisture and allows clean moist air to flow throughout your entire home. Most humidifiers have a drain to allow excess water to flow through the humidifier helping to flush out excessive mineral deposits, keeping the humidifier operating efficiently and keeping maintenance very low.
