As part of the Carrier indoor air quality strategy of Control,
Filter and Refresh, controlling the humidity in your home is very
important!
You may not realize this, but in many cases, the air inside your home is
drier than a desert. Dry, indoor air is often the culprit for such
common problems as itchy or cracked skin, eye irritation, dry, stuffy
nasal passages and, damaged woodwork in your home. In addition to these
comfort issues, dry indoor air can increase the possibilities of
catching or transmitting cold and flu viruses and can reduce the
efficiency and effectiveness of your heating system. All of these
problems can be alleviated with the help of a Carrier humidifier.
Offering three different humidifiers, Carrier can provide enhanced
indoor comfort, air quality and system efficiency with a model designed
to fit your needs.
Adding
moisture to the air inside your home improves the quality of the air
that you breathe. In addition to the comfort issues, dry air can be
the ideal atmosphere for the growth of bacteria and viruses. Viral
infections such as a cold or flu are easier to contract or pass to
others under low humidity conditions. These problems can be controlled
through proper humidification with a Carrier whole-home humidifier.
Keeping your home properly humidified can also help minimize the dust
mite population and the growth of mold. Each of our humidifiers comes
standard with our humidistat control, or you can upgrade to automatic
humidity control with our HumidiTracTM
or ThermidistatTM Control options.
A Carrier humidifier enhances your ability to control system
efficiency and effectiveness. As the moisture from indoor air
evaporates, the temperature in your home feels colder. In the winter,
that means you will likely turn up the thermostat to feel comfortable.
As a result, your system will use extra energy. By putting moisture back
into the air, a humidifier allows you to remain comfortable at a lower
heating temperature for lower energy use and greater operating
efficiency. To help maintain optimum performance of your Carrier
humidifier, we recommend yearly replacement of the evaporator pad and
routine cleaning of the drain.
Carrier humidifiers are equipped with many standard features.
Depending on which model best matches your system, a Carrier humidifier
will deliver between 12 and 18 gallons of moisture per day.
Carrier humidifiers are packaged in a thermoplastic cover with UV
inhibitors. Carrier is the first to offer a humidifier casing
designed to resist damage from ultraviolet light sources. This
corrosion-resistant cover also withstands the stress of high
temperatures and incidental impact for years of good looks and
functionality.
These features, along with our hard-earned reputation for
delivering top-quality products make choosing a Carrier humidifier an
easy choice. Once you choose Carrier, your local Comfort Control
Specialist will analyze your system and help select the perfect
humidifier model for controlling your indoor comfort.
Carrier puts you in control of your comfort with three distinct
options for maintaining proper humidity in your home. We understand
that not all homes - and homeowners - are alike. From the very basic to
the very sophisticated, we offer three options for humidity system
control.
HUMIDISTAT The
humidistat provides accurate, manual control of humidity levels. When
conditions change, simply adjust the control for more or less humidity.
Simple to set and easy to use, the humidistat comes standard with every
humidifier we offer.
HUMIDITRACTM For
automatic humidity control, you can upgrade to a Carrier HumidiTrac
control. With
HumidiTrac, set your desired humidity level, and then walk away. This
system responds to changes in outdoor temperatures, taking about 86,000
readings per day, and automatically adjusts the relative humidity in
your home for maximum comfort. HumidiTrac can help your humidifier
provide 50% more moisture than standard humidifier/control combinations.
THERMIDISTATTM CONTROL The
patented Carrier Thermidistat Control combines the features of a deluxe
thermostat and an automatic humidistat to deliver comfort control no
other manufacturer offers. This optional upgrade monitors both
temperature and humidity levels, then adjusts system operation for the
best combination of comfort and energy efficiency.
Carrier has been on the leading edge of the indoor weather industry
since Willis Carrier invented what we now know as air conditioning in
1902. Since
that time, Carrier scientists, engineers and dealers have been providing
homeowners with the most advanced indoor weather technology available.
This technological advantage has enabled Carrier to customize indoor
weather systems for millions of homeowners nationwide.
Today, you can rely on your local Carrier dealer to evaluate your
indoor weather needs and suggest a customized system that fits those
precise requirements. By recommending the appropriate furnace, air
conditioner, humidifier, air cleaner, ventilator, zoning system and
control, your Carrier Comfort Control Specialist can offer enhanced
comfort while improving the efficiency of your indoor weather system.
