Lennox humidifiers and dehumidifiers in The Bay Area, California, let your home feel more comfortable at an energy-focused setting.
When you visualize a humidifier or dehumidifier, you might think of lugging a portable unit from room to room (and spilling water as you go). Lennox whole-home solutions knock out all of those frustrations, because they work with your HVAC equipment.
During the chillier days, Lennox humidifiers help you avoid dry air in your rooms. This permits you to relieve chapped skin and respiratory problems. Since properly humidified air seems warmer, you can place your thermostat lower and save more on heating costs.
In warmer times, a whole-home dehumidifier pulls water from the air. This makes your space appear less humid and hot while discouraging mold and mildew growth.
Even when there’s extreme humidity around your home, dehumidified air can help your home appear cooler. And allow you to hold your thermostat at a warmer temperature. Positioning it just two degrees hotter can produce a huge difference and save you up to 5–7% on your utility expenses.
If you don’t presently have a Lennox furnace or air conditioner, don’t worry. A selection of humidity control units can work with any brand or model. Phone the Contra Costa Heating & AC heating and cooling pros at 510-916-2218 today. We’ll help you choose the perfect system for your space.
