Humidifiers & Dehumidifiers in Chicago’s North Shore
FIND THE RIGHT BALANCE OF HUMIDITY IN YOUR HOME
As the colder months approach, keeping your home’s air balanced becomes just as important as keeping it warm. Your HVAC equipment works tirelessly year-round, but during fall and winter, the constant operation of heating systems can cause your indoor air to shift dramatically—often becoming too dry. This can lead to more than just discomfort: aggravated allergy and sinus symptoms, cracked or damaged wood furniture, and even higher susceptibility to seasonal illness. On the flip side, excess humidity during transitional months can create a breeding ground for mold and contribute to that heavy, stuffy feeling indoors.
The good news is, you don’t have to settle for less-than-ideal air quality this season. With the right humidifier or dehumidifier in place, you can maintain the perfect balance—keeping your home comfortable, your health protected, and your belongings safe. American Vintage Home offers a wide range of indoor air quality solutions and will help you choose the product best suited for your home and lifestyle. Our goal is to make sure that as temperatures drop, your home remains the cozy, healthy retreat it should be all season long.
Humidifier or Dehumidifier?
Every home is different. Depending on your particular situation, you can determine whether you need a humidifier, dehumidifier or both. Here are the main differences between these two systems:
Humidifier:
- Air that’s too dry can cause dry skin, static electricity, sore throats, damaged furniture, chipped paint and more.
- A humidifier works alongside your heater to make the air in your home feel warmer.
- It eases the strain placed on your heater to lower your utility costs.
Dehumidifier:
- Air that’s too humid can cause mold growth, dust mites and other allergens. It can also damage the wood furniture in your home.
- A dehumidifier works alongside your air conditioner to make the air in your home feel cooler.
- It eases the strain placed on your air conditioner to lower your utility costs.
