What is a Whole House Humidifier?
A whole house humidifier is a helpful tool for improving the quality and comfort of the air in your home by adding moisture back into the air. Colorado, despite being a mountainous state with gorgeous rivers and lakes, is actually quite dry. We are in the top 10 list for states with the lowest relative humidity, hanging out in good company with locations like Utah, Wyoming and New Mexico. That means if you want a higher humidity level in the air, you’re going to have to create it yourself.
Whole-home humidifiers introduce moisture into the air via your home’s existing HVAC system. Some options include standalone systems, but upgrading your HVAC will typically maximize your results and cover more of the home.
- Steam humidifiers use heat to boil water and release the resulting steam into your duct system.
Evaporative humidifiers either create moisture by blowing air across wet pads (similar to a swamp cooler) or by using the HVAC’s heating system to warm the water and release it into the vents.

How a Whole Home Humidifier Can Help:
- Increase comfort: Proper humidity just feels right. Your skin, hair, lips and nails do not have to work overtime to stay healthy. Your nasal passages and throat are not constantly dried out. Humidity is essential to comfort, especially in a Colorado winter. Your staticky pets will be equally impressed with a reduction in cracked noses and claws and less knots in their fur.
Maintain warmth: Humid air simply feels warmer, which is pretty handy once those winter energy bills start hitting the mailbox. Our bodies cool through evaporation and dry climates pull that moisture from your body and make you feel cooler than you are. Humidity helps your body retain that moisture and hold onto that heat.
Protect assets: The surfaces in your home also need moisture to thrive. Your hardwood floors, instruments, furniture and even the infrastructure of your home all benefit from a proper balance of humidity and moisture in the air. Prevent cracked floors, doors, furniture and cabinets by bringing humidity back into the home with your central HVAC system.
Reduce sickness: Humidity helps us reduce sickness by supporting our body’s natural preventative measures. Moisture helps our bodies maintain the mucus and fluids that trap germs before they enter our bodies. It’s also worth noting that some recent studies have also found that airborne viruses may have more trouble moving in humid air, as they get weighed down by the moisture.
