In order to make a room comfortable in hot, humid climates, air conditioners must lower the indoor humidity level as well as the air temperature. If an air conditioner fails to lower the humidity adequately, the air will be cool, but will feel uncomfortably damp. A dehumidifier will take out the humidity in the air.
The average heating and cooling systems still use a basic air filter. There are several types of permanent air filters available in various efficiencies that can help you filter the air in your home.
With proper humidity levels in your home, you will feel comfortable and breathe easier. You can eliminate the dry eye, nose and throat feeling you have when you wake up in the morning. Humidity will also reduce or eliminate static electricity. Proper humidity also prevents wood from cracking and peeling.
A flow-through humidifier can be added to any forced air heating system. This type of humidifier provides humidity without breeding or spreading mold or mildew. These humidifiers are easy to maintain. It has no moving parts and is designed to operate with no mineral or mold buildup.
Ultraviolet Light units have been independently tested and proved to be effective in the constantly moving air environments of heating and cooling systems, killing mold and bacteria quickly and effectively. When this occurs, you are helping to eliminate allergies and other breathing problems.
