Types of House Air Humidifiers
The Whole House Central Humidifier or so called the furnace humidifier installation is a central device set up within the heating system, it purpose is to distribute the humidified air throughout the whole house duct system. These whole house central humidifiers are safe for your family and house, as they don’t release hot steam into the indoor air. The Portable Humidifiers aren't safe and not recommended by a lot of experts, unless for some special cases and under some circumstances. We also recommed using stand alone air humidifiers, instead of those types that are integrated with Air Filtration Systems as they doesn't provide full functionality.
First type of the whole house furnace humidifier installation is the old roll type humidifier, water will go through a thin plastic tube into a pan where a rolling pad will pick up water as rolls against it, then moisture picked up then directed to supply air. this old type of Furnace Humidifier installation wastes a lot of water, and if have any clogged lines or blockages in the condensation line it will cause water to over flow in pan causing leakage internally, and in most cases not noticed until caused damage to the furnace with slow water leakage.
Second type of the whole house furnace humidifier installation and the most common type of air humidifiers is the one with flat pad with no pan. As water passes through the pad from on top and excess water goes down a tube to the floor drain, this type of furnace humidifier installation requires changing the pad on yearly basis, and in some parts of Ontario twice a year if have hard water. Homeowner can check the condition of the pad on a monthly basis for defects or calcium deposits to determine if it needs replacement.
Third type of the whole house furnace humidifier installation is the steam humidifier which uses power to increase temperature of water supplied to steam injected directly into the supply air plenum. This is the most efficient type of the home central humidifiers, as it don't waste much water at all and it's the most comfort type, as steam injected directly into the supply air into the house. This type comes with a price as it's the most cost expensive and requires more labor and time to complete.
