- It will add moisture to your air, preventing different skin problems
- It keeps the air humid, helping to reduce the spread of viruses
- It can improve your sleep quality

Bypass humidifiers. Bypass humidifiers are a popular type of humidifier that uses heat from the furnace to humidify the air. They take the heated air from the furnace and pass it through a water panel to draw moisture away before returning it to the ductwork system. This process helps to increase the humidity levels in your home and prevent problems such as dry skin and respiratory illnesses caused by dry air. Bypass humidifiers are more affordable and require less maintenance than other types of humidifiers, and they also consume less water.
Fan-powered humidifiers. Fan-powered humidifiers blow air over the water panel to distribute moisture in the room. These humidifiers are more efficient than bypass models because they add more moisture to the air. They also work independently of the furnace. Fan-powered humidifiers work well in larger homes and homes with high ceilings. When choosing a whole house humidifier consider your home’s size, budget, and desired humidity level.
Steam humidifier. This type releases steam into the air after heating water. Steam humidifiers have a reputation for raising humidity levels quickly, making them a great choice for larger homes or places with low humidity. A whole house steam humidifier requires less maintenance than other humidifiers because they don’t use water panels or other components that often need to be cleaned or replaced.
