If the air in your home is too dry, then it can be uncomfortable to breathe, can cause health issues, and can even damage wood products like flooring, pianos, picture frames and cabinetry. In the winter, it's especially important to add moisture to the air, since dry winter air can drive down the relative humidity level in your home to as low as 15%, which is drier than the air in most deserts. There are plenty of good humidifiers available which can replenish the humidity in the air in a safe, water vapor form (no mist or droplets) for the whole house.
If the air in your home is too dry, you may suffer respiratory illness, sore throats, itchy skin, chapped lips, nosebleeds and static shocks. In addition, dry air can result in separating floorboards, gaps in moldings and loose furniture joints. Fortunately, you can avoid these problems by increasing the relative humidity in your home. A good option to add humidity to your house is with an evaporative or ultrasonic humidifier.
