Guaranteeing comfort in the colder season demands more than just a warm coat, gloves, and a hat. In order to keep cozy, we have to be mindful of one of the most overlooked aspects of colder weather: dry air. The frosty weather pulls all the humidity out of the air, bringing many problems for your family and home. Dry air increases the risk of everything from sickness to even shocks from static. All these potential problems can be counteracted with the use of a humidifier. 
Why does the air dry out? What can you do about it?
When temperatures lower, the structure and formation of the air itself alters. The cold air has less moisture than summer air, which is why lips and skin can get chapped and arid much quicker in the chilly season. Our bodies aren’t the only entities that dry during the winter – wood floors, furniture, and paint in and around our homes have a greater risk of cracking and chipping in the dry air.
The most efficient way to insert moisture into your home is with humidification. Humidifiers offer whole-home air moisture and can grant you back control of your home air. It is easy and painless to install to your present HVAC system to start the circulation and allocation of dependable air.
