How Do Humidifiers Work?
Whole-home humidifiers connect to your furnace and your home’s water supply. As your heating system runs, it draws warm air across a water panel or steam chamber inside the humidifier. This process adds moisture to the air before it travels through your ductwork and into each room.
You achieve balanced, consistent humidity throughout your entire home. A humidifier is one way to achieve better indoor air quality in your home.
Visualize how a whole-home humidifier works:
- Connects to the water line
- Mounts to the HVAC system
- Draws water as needed
- Converts water into vapor
- Distributes moisture through ducts
Do I Need a Humidifier in My Home?
During the frigid Twin Cities winters, using your heating system is necessary. Unfortunately, the constant operation can also dry out your indoor air. When your humidity levels drop below 30%, it becomes uncomfortable. You want to keep the indoor humidity range between 30% and 50%. A humidifier helps you stay in that sweet spot.
Here are a few signs of low humidity:
- Itchy or cracked skin
- Frequent static electricity
- Dry, sore throat or nosebleeds
- Warping or splitting wood floors and furniture
- Constant dust buildup

Frequently Asked Questions
Does a humidifier need regular maintenance?
Yes. Whole-home humidifiers need an annual tune-up to clean mineral buildup and replace water panels. Our technicians will perform that service.
Should I turn off my humidifier in the summer?
As the humidity rises in the summer, you should turn off your humidifier. Most systems have a damper or control setting to switch it off until the winter season returns. This will also reduce your energy consumption.
