Improve Your Comfort & Health With a Whole-Home Humidifier
Winter doesn’t have to equal discomfort, at least not while you’re at home. While dry air is inevitable in the winter, it doesn’t mean you have to put up with it. Having a whole-house humidifier installed with simple, easy-to-use controls allows you to breathe easier (literally).
When you have a humidifier installed in your home, you'll experience the following benefits:
- Relief from dry, itchy skin
- Reduced sinus discomfort
- Less sore throats and coughing
- Reduced allergy and asthma symptoms
- Prevention of splitting/damage to furniture, wood floors, and other vulnerable items
At Dutch Enterprises, we make whole-home humidifier installation easy. Call our professionals today to get started on improving your indoor air quality!
How Do Whole-House Humidifiers Work?
Whole-house humidifier units are integrated into your HVAC system and draw water from your home’s water supply. Different types add moisture to the air in different ways:
- Bypass Systems: A bypass humidifier relies on your home's heating system to produce moisture. Hot air passes through a water channel within the humidifier and absorbs water vapor before being redirected back into the ductwork. This type of system uses your furnace's blower motor to move air and typically has a bypass damper that can be closed during hotter weather.
- Fan-Powered: Fan-powered humidifiers operate similarly to bypass models. However, they have a built-in fan to draw in heated air and push it through the water channel. This fan means the unit can provide humidity even when the furnace isn't running. The fan also creates stronger air movement through the water channel, generally allowing these units to produce more moisture than bypass systems.
- Steam Humidifiers: Steam humidifiers use an electric heating element to heat water and generate steam. The steam is injected directly into your home's ductwork, where it mixes with the air. Steam humidifiers can provide precise humidity control year-round and have the highest moisture output capacity. Their electric heating elements allow them to work regardless of air temperature or furnace operation.
Each of these units requires very little maintenance and can improve comfort throughout your entire home.

Another Option: Portable Humidifiers
Many people feel they don't need a whole-home system. In these cases, smaller, portable humidifiers are available.
Portable units, also known as “room” units, are freestanding machines that plug into a wall outlet. Typically, they are powerful enough to provide humidity to one or two rooms. Larger units can keep several rooms comfortable.
These units are good for renters who may not want to pay for a whole-home humidifier or prefer not to have one installed since they're hard to remove from the duct system.
Alternative Needs
In Missouri, where our climate experiences large variations in humidity levels, a dual system approach can be highly beneficial. Humidifiers are ideal for dry, cold weather seasons when you're running your heating system daily. However, during summer months, when outdoor humidity is high and the AC is on, a dehumidifier helps maintain optimal indoor moisture levels.
A whole-home dehumidifier can improve home comfort, prevent mold growth, reduce dust mites, and protect wooden furniture and flooring from moisture. If you're considering investing in a humidifying system in Missouri, you may also consider adding one that reduces moisture.
