In short, yes. A first step is conducting an energy audit to determine the energy load for your home. Calculating the load tells the experts at Top Notch Heating & Air Conditioning how much humidity your house gains during the day and what size of home humidifier will do the best to keep your indoor climate comfortable. This is critical, as most home humidifier system issues stem from an improperly-sized humidifier.
Here’s where the load calculation comes into play, as you want to pick a correctly-sized home humidifier to install—either too big or too small of a humidifier can lead to costly repair or replacement down the road. Call the HVAC professionals at Top Notch Heating & Air Conditioning, they’ll know the perfect home humidifier to install for your home at the lowest price.
Oftentimes, your old existing ducts can’t handle the airflow cost of a newly installed humidifier. Any upgrades to accommodate a new system will likely increase the cost to install a humidifier unit, but will ultimately help you avoid costly, high-energy bills & humid rooms in the future.
Yes, your humidifier needs to be cleaned. You should clean your humidifier whenever you change your air filters, which you should change every three to six months. If you are using tap water, it is especially necessary to clean your humidifier to keep your unit functioning.
Like any other HVAC system, your humidifier needs to be serviced. To keep your humidifier in proper working order, you’ll need to have your humidifier professionally serviced by Top Notch Heating & Air Conditioning at least once a year. Humidifiers are complex systems that require professional attention. It’s a good idea to have your yearly preventative maintenance done on your humidifier in the fall when you have your HVAC system serviced. Preventative maintenance will help prevent repairs and extend the life of your unit greatly.
It doesn’t make a lot of sense to install both a humidifier and a dehumidifier in a house, as they are both working to do the opposite of the other. If you are struggling to decipher whether a humidifier or a dehumidifier is what you and your home need, call Top Notch Heating & Air Conditioning to have a heating and cooling expert come out to your home to help figure out which is more appropriate for your home.
