Air Quality Control

In order to provide the best indoor Air Quality for your family here are a few small but important investments that can keep your home safe and family healthy all year round.

Temperature Control

Enhanced comfort and energy savings is just a thermostat away.

What is the single easiest way to get higher performance from your existing heating and cooling system while lowering your home’s overall energy costs? Simply install an Aprilaire Programmable Thermostat. According to the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, a programmable thermostat can save you up to 30% on energy costs annually.

But if you’re interested in getting the very best in temperature control for every room in your home, the Aprilaire Zoned Comfort Control system is your answer. Instead of using just one thermostat for your entire home, the Aprilaire Zoned Comfort Control system uses multiple thermostats to ensure optimum temperature levels and total comfort in every room of your home.

Problems

• As you move from room to room in your home, you notice that certain areas are always too cold or too hot.
• Bedrooms on the second floor may be too hot in the summer and too cold in the winter.
• A finished basement room is too cold in the spring and fall.
• Heat from the sun is making one area or side of your home uncomfortably warmer than in other areas.
• The bedroom above the garage is always too hot or too cold.

What You Can Do to Treat the Symptoms

• Run your heating or cooling system blower fan constantly to reduce hot or cold spots.
• Use ceiling fans to help increase circulation (with blades moving air downward in winter, upward in summer).
• Keep heating and cooling system vents unobstructed by furniture or decorations.
• Have your heating and cooling system inspected periodically to ensure your system is working at optimum efficiency.

Humidification

Protect your family and your home from the unhealthy and damaging effects of over-dry air. Dry nose, cracked, itchy skin, and sore throats. Aggravated allergy and asthma symptoms. Painful static shocks. Chipping paint and plaster. Splitting or cracked wood floors, furniture, trim and molding. Sound familiar? Why go through another season with these problems when there is a solution—an Aprilaire Whole-Home Humidifier.

Turning your temperature up in the wintertime will keep you warm but won’t increase your home’s humidity level. Daily activities such as showering, cooking and doing laundry don’t produce enough moisture to keep your home’s air from being too dry. According to medical experts, many viruses thrive in low humidity increasing the likelihood of catching colds, flu and upper respiratory ailments. The American Society of Otolaryngology even reports that it is important to prevent an overly dry environment because it makes people more susceptible to infection.

Whole-Home Humidifier from Aprilaire, installed by Elite Heating & Cooling Inc. will deliver the perfect amount of moisture to your air making you feel more comfortable at lower thermostat settings. In fact, the EPA states that you can save up to 4% on your heating bill for every degree you lower your thermostat! Increase your family’s level of comfort and protect your valuable furnishings by adding just the right amount of moisture with an Aprilaire Whole-House Humidifier.

Core Benefits
Every Aprilaire product provides these important key benefits for your family and home.

Health
An Aprilaire Whole-House Humidifier can reduce the chance of upper respiratory problems. “Humidity reduces the incidence of respiratory infections and speeds recovery from the common cold.”—William J. Hitschler, MD, Archives of Otolaryngology.
Comfort
When the air in your home becomes too dry, your body is robbed of precious moisture, leaving you and your family with dry, itchy skin, and dry nose and throat symptoms. An Aprilaire Whole-House Humidifier can help alleviate all of these uncomfortable symptoms and more.
Protection
Dry air pulls moisture from walls and hardwood floors which leads to damaging, unsightly cracks. Valuable furniture, artwork and electronics are also subject to the adverse effects of dry air. An Aprilaire Whole-House Humidifier can help protect your home and its contents by supplying the correct amount of moisture to your home’s air.
Energy Savings
Most homeowners turn up the thermostat because they feel cold. An Aprilaire Whole-House Humidifier allows you to feel warmer at lower thermostat settings, saving up to 4% on your heating bill for every degree you lower your thermostat, according to the EPA.
