Indoor Air Quality

Winter air that does not feel like paper.

The overview

What it is, and why it matters.

Heating cold outdoor air makes indoor air very dry. Signs include static shocks, dry skin and sinuses, cracking wood and a house that feels cold even at a decent temperature. A bypass or steam humidifier added to the furnace adds measured moisture to the air that is already moving.

Nashville HVAC installs and services whole-home humidifiers across Middle Tennessee. We choose a type that fits your system and your home's tightness, install it with a proper water line and drain, add a humidistat and set it to a sensible level, since too much humidity in cold weather can cause window condensation.

Why people choose it

Four things done right.

Comfort at lower temperatures

Moister air feels warmer, so you may turn the heat down.

No tank to fill

It draws water from the house supply.

Protects wood

Stable humidity helps floors and furniture.

Good questions

Whole-Home Humidifiers: common questions

What humidity level should I keep in winter?

A commonly suggested range is roughly thirty to fifty percent, lower when it is very cold outside to avoid condensation on windows. We set the control for your home.

Do humidifiers cause mold?

Too much humidity can encourage growth. A properly controlled, maintained humidifier and a balanced setting keep it in a healthy range.
