Humidity Control Services
The best way to achieve a balanced indoor environment is with a whole-house approach to humidity control. Ideally, relative indoor humidity levels should be between 35% and 50%.
A reading that’s too low may cause damage to your structure, electronics, and health, while excess humidity may lead to the growth of mold or mildew and an increase in allergy symptoms.
Whole-house humidifiers and dehumidifiers work with your existing HVAC system to add or remove moisture to or from the air as needed. We offer a full range of humidity control services, including:
- Humidifier installation
- Humidifier repair
- Humidifier replacement
- Humidifier maintenance
- Dehumidifier installation
- Dehumidifier repair
- Dehumidifier replacement
- Dehumidifier maintenance
Whether your current humidity control system is approaching the end of its life or has stopped working, or if you’re installing one for the first time, our skilled technicians will help you find the right solution to suit your home, budget, and lifestyle.
We’ll complete the work right the first time, and our HVAC services come with a 100% satisfaction guarantee for added peace of mind.

Signs You Have a Humidity Issue
Summer heat and humidity can cause indoor moisture levels to rise, and while your AC can help, it may be ineffective, or you may not need it when temperatures are lower. Conversely, during the winter, you may find there’s too little moisture in your home due to your heating system.
While some symptoms of a problem with your indoor humidity levels are obvious, others can be subtle, but knowing what to look for is the first step toward resolving the issue. Signs you may need humidity control include:
Too much humidity:
- Mold growth: Mold needs high concentrations of moisture to grow and can negatively impact your family’s health.
- Discomfort: Excess humidity can cause your environment to feel hotter than it is.
- Musty odors: Mold may grow in hidden areas such as a basement or ventilation system.
Too little humidity:
- Health concerns: Irritation of the throat and sinuses, nosebleeds, dry skin, chapped lips, and more.
- Damage to furniture and electronics: Wood may dry out and crack, while electronics may be negatively impacted by electrostatic electricity.
