The Aprilaire Advantage
Since 1954, millions of homeowners have trusted Aprilaire® humidifiers more than any other brand. Aprilaire delivers the many benefits of proper humidification with a minimum of maintenance. You feel
warmer in the winter. You are more comfortable, your skin feels smoother. And there is no better way to protect and preserve your home and furnishings than with an Aprilaire humidifier. Even musical
instruments and plants benefit.
How Dry Are You?
When you think of dryness, do you picture the arid, wind-whipped sands of the Sahara? The cracked, sun-baked earth of Death Valley? It might surprise you to know that there are places in this world that
are twice as dry as those.
One of the driest places on earth could be your home. And, it's this "desert dryness" that makes you feel uncomfortable, robbing moisture from your home, your furnishings, even your skin.
Humidity For Comfort
The recommended indoor relative humidity is three to four times the humidity in the average North American home in winter. If you're not reaching these levels in your
home, you could be exposing yourself and your family to the physical aggravations of  dryness. In fact, doctors often mention dry air as one of the causes for nose, throat, and skin discomfort.
Unhumidified heated air also dries out the wood in your home, shrinking the wood framing around doors and windows. Gaps then occur, allowing cold air in, making your home less energy efficient. Dry air also
causes wood floors and trim to separate, walls and ceilings to crack; it can harm expensive musical instruments and electronic equipment such as computers; dryness even weakens the joints of expensive furnishings.
Humidity, Pure and Natural
Beacause Aprilaire distributes moisture as a pure water vapor, there are no water droplets or mist that can carry impurities, like minerals or bacteria. In other humidfiers, minerals can build up in
the unit and cause malfunction, requiring costly service. Even worse, these impurities can be distributed throughout your home. Aprilaire's safe, flow-through evaporative design ensures that
these harmful elements are either deposited on the replaceable Water Panel® evaporator or flushed down the drain. This eliminates the problems that can be caused by
stagnant water in units not equipped with a drain.
21st Century Technology
Until now, you had to do the thinking for your humidifier, checking the outside temperature  and making adjustments as the temperature changed. But even with these
adjustments, homeowners often experienced problems trying to maintain a comfortable 35-50% relative humidity level. That is because not even the most conscientious person will adjust a
humidifier more than once or twice a day. Too much indoor moisture will cause condensation (excess moisture) on windows. Conversely, too little moisture results in such
irritations as static "shocks" or dry skin. Therefore a manual humidifier is not the best solution.
Now, 21st Century technology and Aprilaire product innovation have produced the unprecedented Aprilaire Automatic Humidifier. It provides the perfect solution, using
the speed, accuracy, and reliability of a computer. This humi difier measures and
responds to outdoor temperature changes - the only way to achieve maximum indoor humidity levels while preventing window condensation and damage to your home. It instantly adjusts to provide
optimum indoor humidity levels - all automatically.
