Humidification

The Skuttle® “Happy House” –

Your Assurance of Enhanced IAQ

Healthful indoor air (often called indoor air quality or IAQ) is significantly cleaner than the air in many of today’s homes. It also contains appro- priate levels of moisture and fresh outside air to aid the health and com- fort of residents.

In cold weather, dry indoor air often makes homes drier than a desert. Acting like a sponge, the parched air absorbs moisture wherever it can find it – furniture, plants, pets . . . even people. The result is a variety of discomforts and problems, including dry skin, stuffy noses, hacky coughs, sore throats, allergies, damage to furniture and woodwork, wilted plants and static electricity.

Too much or too little humidity in a home promotes an increase in bacteria, viruses, fungi, respiratory ailments and other unhealthy conditions. Skuttle humidifiers restore a home’s relative humidity to a balanced, healthier, more comfortable 30-to-50 percent range. And Skuttle makes humidifiers to fit more furnace systems, floor plans and water types than any other manufacturer.

Filtration

Your body’s respiratory system is designed to filter out airborne particles that are three-to-five microns in diameter. Smaller particles can be inhaled, potentially causing serious health problems. The smallest contaminants (a single micron or less) are dispersed through HVAC ductwork and make up about 99 percent of the particles circulating throughout a typical home.

Skuttle duct-mounted air cleaners capture most of these contaminants in a deep-pleated filter which traps far more particulates over a longer period than standard, flat-filter designs. The results are cleaner indoor air, longer filter life, longer furnace life and a healthier living environment.

60-1, F60-2, F60-1, 60-2 specifications

Skuttle Indoor Air Quality Products provide innovative solutions for enhancing indoor air quality in residential and commercial settings. Among their diverse offerings, the F60-2, F60-1 and other models stand out for their efficiency and advanced technologies designed to meet the needs of modern air management systems.

The Skuttle F60-2 and F60-1 are high-performance models that integrate seamlessly into existing HVAC systems. The F60-2 is particularly notable for its dual-purpose functions, combining both fresh air ventilation and economical energy recovery. This allows homeowners to enjoy improved air quality while maintaining energy efficiency, essential in today's environmentally conscious market. The F60-2 features a robust construction designed for durability, ensuring long-term performance and reduced maintenance needs.

One of the standout features of the F60 series is its advanced filtration system. Utilizing a MERV 8 filter, these devices effectively capture a wide range of airborne particles, including dust, dirt, pollen, and even certain bacteria, thereby providing cleaner air to occupants. The filters are easily replaceable, and the system’s design ensures minimal air resistance, promoting optimal airflow throughout the space.

The precise control mechanisms found in both the F60-2 and F60-1 contribute to their user-friendliness. With intuitive controls, users can adjust settings easily to meet their specific air quality needs. The integrated sensor technology monitors indoor air conditions in real-time, allowing for automatic adjustments to ventilation rates, ensuring that air quality is maintained consistently without the need for constant manual intervention.

In addition to excellent filtration and ease of use, Skuttle’s F60 models are designed with energy conservation in mind. They employ energy recovery ventilation (ERV) technology, which not only introduces fresh air into a building but does so while minimizing energy loss. By pre-conditioning incoming air with outgoing air temperature, these systems help stabilize indoor climates efficiently, leading to lower energy bills and reduced reliance on HVAC systems.

Durability, efficiency, and superior air cleaning capabilities make the Skuttle F60-2 and F60-1 ideal choices for anyone looking to improve indoor air quality while remaining energy-conscious. With their advanced features and technologies, these models represent a significant step forward in creating healthier indoor environments.
