As the Chicago area heads into colder, drier months, homeowners start to feel the effects of low indoor humidity—dry skin, irritated sinuses, static electricity, shrinking woodwork, and higher heating bills. One of the most effective ways to improve comfort and indoor air quality during winter is installing a whole-home humidifier directly onto your HVAC system.
At All Pro Air Duct Cleaning, we specialize not only in air duct cleaning and dryer vent service but also in professional whole-home humidifier installation for homes across Chicagoland. If your home feels dry or uncomfortable once the furnace kicks on, this upgrade may be exactly what your home needs.
Why Indoor Humidity Drops During Chicago Winters
Winter air in the Midwest is naturally very dry. When the furnace runs, it further strips moisture from your indoor air—reducing humidity to levels as low as 10–20% (less than the Sahara Desert).Low humidity causes:
Dry, itchy skin
Nosebleeds and sinus irritation
Increased static electricity
Warped wood floors, cracked furniture, and shrinking trim
Longer heating cycles and higher energy bills
A whole-home humidifier restores balance by adding clean, controlled moisture into your HVAC airflow.
Benefits of Installing a Whole-Home Humidifier
Here’s why thousands of homeowners across the Chicago region choose to install a furnace-mounted humidifier:
1. Better Indoor Comfort
Proper humidity creates a warmer, more comfortable atmosphere, reducing dryness and irritation.
2. Lower Heating Bills
Air with the right humidity holds heat better, allowing your home to feel warmer at lower thermostat settings—saving homeowners 10–20% on winter energy costs.
3. Protects Your Home’s Structure
Wood flooring, cabinets, instruments, and trim stay stable and crack-free when humidity stays in the ideal 30–50% range.
4. Less Dust & Better Air Quality
Moist air prevents dust and allergens from circulating—and limits the spread of viruses that thrive in dry conditions.
5. Low Maintenance
Quality humidifiers require only seasonal checks and annual pad replacements.
