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.
