The benefits of a properly humidified environment
During the heating season, cold air is brought into the home and heated. When heated, this air dries out and greatly increases its capacity to hold more moisture. By using a humidifier, a source of water is provided to satisfy this increased moisture holding capability, rather than having it drawn from our body surface and the surrounding furnishings in the home.
A properly maintained and efficiently operating humidifier is a source of improved indoor air quality and personal comfort. We trust you will enjoy all the benefits of your new humidifier.

The above calculations are for reference only and are based on the following:
•Inside temperature 70° F/35% relative humidity
•Outside Temp 20° F /70% relative humidity
•8 foot ceiling height
•Internal moisture gain of one pound per hour
•Furnace
This chart uses A.R.I. standard designations:
A “Tight Home” is assumed to be well insulated with vapor barriers, tight storm windows and doors, and a dampered fireplace. Air exchange rate of .50 changes per hour.
An “Average Home” is insulated and has a dampered fireplace, but there are no vapor barriers, storm doors, or storm windows. Air exchange rate of 1.0 change per hour.
A “Loose Home” is generally one constructed before 1930, has little or no insulation, no storm doors, storm windows, weather stripping or vapor barriers, and often no effective dampering of fireplaces. Air exchange rate is as high as 1.5 changes per hour.
