Humidity Control for Better Indoor Air Quality

Maintaining the right humidity levels in your home is essential for both comfort and health. Too much moisture in the air can create an environment where mold and dust mites thrive, while too little can cause dry skin, respiratory issues and overall discomfort.

At Jay Moody HVAC, our experts assess your home’s unique needs to recommend the ideal humidity control system.

Humidity Control Systems

Humidifier Installation, Maintenance & Repair

Our team offers humidifier installation, maintenance and repair services to keep your home comfortable and the air fresh year-round.

Humidifiers add moisture to the air, maintaining optimal humidity levels throughout your home, especially during colder months when heating systems can dry out the air. The humidifiers we install feature automatic humidity control technology to adjust to your home’s needs, while preventing water retention and bacterial growth.

Our team at Jay Moody HVAC provides dehumidifier installation, repair and maintenance services to ensure optimal performance and reliability.

Dehumidifiers remove excess moisture from the air, helping to prevent mold growth, reduce allergens and improve comfort by making your home feel more comfortable.

Common Humidity Issues in Older vs. Modern Homes

Humidity Control image

Older homes typically have higher air change rates/hour (ACH), causing cold, dry air in winter and warm, moist air in summer. For this reason, older homes often require humidification in winter and dehumidifiers in summer.

Modern homes, with lower ACH, usually don’t need humidifiers, as daily activities add moisture, often requiring dehumidification year-round to manage excess humidity.

Signs of Poor Humidity Control

Dry Skin & Increased Allergy Symptoms

Low humidity can lead to dry skin, increased allergy symptoms and respiratory discomfort. The lack of moisture in the air can irritate the sinuses and throat, making it harder to breathe and causing overall discomfort.

Very Stuffy or Dry Air

If your home feels stuffy or overly dry, it’s likely a sign that your humidity levels are off. This imbalance can cause temperature inconsistencies, making it harder to feel comfortable in your space.
