Ditch the Itch This Winter With a Whole-Home Humidifier

It’s that time of year again—winter is here. Not only is the weather freezing cold, but the air is also dry, which can leave your skin cracked, irritated, and itchy. Thankfully, a solution can be simple: install a whole-home humidifier. This indoor air quality system can do more than just help you ditch the itch—it can help boost your health and comfort in these other ways.

A Humidifier Helps You Feel More Comfortable

A humidifier works by adding moisture to your indoor air, which helps balance out the naturally dry winter air. In doing so, it helps alleviate that dry, itchy skin. But that moisture also helps ease other dry-air-related problems, including nasal issues (sinus congestion, irritation, and bloody noses), headaches, dry throat and cough, and cracked lips.

More Moisture Means More Warmth

The extra moisture a humidifier adds makes you indoor air feel warmer—a great benefit to have as wintertime in Wisconsin sets in. And not only will that help you feel warmer, but it may also help you save on energy costs, as you may not need to crank up your home heating system as high to combat the freezing temperatures.

Keep Your Home as Healthy as You

When you think about home comfort, you don’t always think about your home’s health. Humidifiers help protect your wooden furnishings, like furniture and doorframes, preventing them from cracking, breaking, or wearing down easily.
