Balance Humidity Levels During Heating Season

Winter temperatures can send humidity levels in the air tumbling to dangerously low levels. Dry winter air can be responsible for everything from dry, cracked skin to watery eyes, sneezing, nose bleeds, coughing, and plenty of other health effects. Of course, you don’t want to have to suffer from these things in the comfort of your own home as well, and we at Cregger Plumbing, Heating, Cooling & Electrical don’t think you should have to, either.

We offer a wide range of humidifiers that can help you carefully and precisely control your indoor humidity levels. Some of these products work directly with your existing HVAC equipment, while others are independent and can be set to operate without the need to turn on your furnace. If dry air is a real problem in your home during the winter, reach out to our indoor air quality experts and we’ll help you solve this problem!

Call (248) 543-1190 today for more information on central humidifier installation. Based in Ferndale, we serve homes throughout the Michigan metro area.

  • How do I know if I need a humidifier in my home?

    If you experience dry, cracked skin, watery eyes, nose bleeds, or respiratory issues during the winter, it may be a sign that the air in your home is too dry. A humidifier can help balance the humidity levels and alleviate these symptoms.

  • Can I install a humidifier on my own, or should I hire a professional?

    While some portable humidifiers can be self-installed, central humidifier installation usually requires professional expertise. It’s best to consult with a heating and cooling specialist to ensure proper installation and optimal performance.

  • What are the benefits of a central humidifier over a portable one?

    Central humidifiers are integrated with your HVAC system, providing balanced humidity levels throughout your entire home. They require less maintenance and offer more precise control over humidity levels compared to portable units.

  • Can a humidifier help reduce heating costs?

    By adding moisture to the air, a humidifier can make your home feel warmer at lower temperatures, allowing you to lower your thermostat and potentially save on heating costs during the winter.

  • What Is A Central Humidifier?

    A central humidifier is a system that helps to add moisture to the air in your home, helping you to feel more comfortable and reducing dryness and irritation. This type of humidifier is typically installed as part of a central heating and cooling system, utilizing an existing ductwork system to distribute moisture throughout your house.

    There are several different types of central humidifiers available, each with its own advantages and disadvantages. One popular option is a steam-based central humidifier, which adds steam directly into the ductwork using a special vaporizer unit connected to the main heating system. Another common type is an evaporative or fan-assisted central humidifier, which uses fans to draw moistened air from water reservoirs into the ducts.

  • The Benefits of Installing a Central Humidifier

    • Humidifiers may help you to avoid cold and flu symptoms by combating dry air
    • Humidifiers may help prevent your nasal cavities from drying out
    • Humidifiers may reduce snoring by easing dry airways
    • Humidifiers may help to clear nasal passages and help with asthma or allergies
    • Humidifiers may help alleviate an itchy scalp
    • Humidifiers may help to keep your skin moisturized and prevent it from drying out
    • Humidifiers may help prevent bloody noses by clearing nasal passages

I’ve been using Cregger for the last several months on both of my properties for various different plumbing issues and they never disappoint. They always have kind, genuine and people centered technicians who are honest and very communicative. Prices are reasonable and the service is impeccable. They are always there within 24 hours of me calling them. I couldn’t recommend this company enough. Now I’m just looking for my next plumbing project so I can hire Cregger again! Thank you all again for your trusted business.

I had an amazing experience with Cregger Plumbing. From the moment I called about my water heater, the customer service was excellent. The woman who answered the phone was friendly, helpful, and accommodating. I booked an appointment for the following day. Jayden was outstanding. He was extremely knowledgeable, professional, and skilled. I really appreciated his expertise and willingness to educate me throughout the process. I highly recommend Cregger Plumbing!

Brian came out on a Friday and spent about a half hour inspecting and assessing the plumbing of our condensate drain line. We had an idea in mind and since our house sits on a crawlspace, it had some special considerations. He had a plan to bring the system to code and provide a low-maintenance solution. He came back on the following Tuesday and completed the work in under 2 hours. No surprises turned up and he stayed right at the quoted amount. Personable and professional throughout, we’re very pleased and would highly recommend Brian and Cregger’s for plumbing service!

Called to have my ac unit looked at as the fan wouldn't spin and the unit itself was making a terrible clicking and whining noise. Paul got the problem figured out quickly and got my air conditioner running smoothly again in no time at all. He took the time to show me what the problem was and even gave a detailed explanation of what was going on.
