Kansas City Humidification & Dehumidification

Did You Know?  You can protect your health and your home with balanced humidification and de-humidification.

Balancing the humidity levels in your home is important to your personal comfort.  But, did you know it will also help preserve your household furnishings?

In our ever-changing Midwest climate it’s more important than ever to maintain the indoor humidity levels in our home.  When winter rolls around the air dries out.  The resulting dry air brings all sorts of health problems including itchy noses, scratchy throats, cracked lips, dry skin and the health issues that accompany those symptoms.   Dry winter air is also when you get reacquainted with the wonders of static electricity!

Dry air can do severe damage your home, as well.  It can shrink wallpaper, crack paint and cause joints in wood furniture and cabinets to separate and even cause newly installed wood flooring to shrink and crack.

Overly moist air can also cause severe damage throughout your home.  The telltale signs of too much humidity in your home include:  sticky floors, mold or mildew, musty odors, condensation on windows and water pipes or that uncomfortable clammy feeling on your skin. If you experience any of these problems you need dehumidification.

A Humidifier ADDS Moisture To The Air In Your Home

A humidifier installed by the expert technicians at Bob Hamilton quietly and automatically provides humidity in every room of your home.  The humidification system is installed directly in to your heating and air conditioning system and distributes moisture-rich air through the duct and vent system.

These sophisticated units monitor the humidity levels in your home and automatically adjust setting to assure maximum comfort.

A Dehumidifier REMOVES Moisture From The Air In Your Home

It’s a common misconception that your air conditioning unit acts as a dehumidifier. While it does remove some water from the air, it can never remove enough to maintain comfortable levels in your home.  

A dehumidifier is basically the opposite of a humidifier.  It monitors the air in your home and when the water levels in the air get too high it automatically turns on and removes excess humidity from the air.

The dehumidification system is installed directly in to your heating and air conditioning system so your entire home is comfortable.
