The people at Westerhouse are honest down to earth people! I've had them come out twice and both times the service men were professional and friendly. I would recommend them to anyone in the area and will only use them for my HVAC needs. I cannot say enough good things about this company and their employees.

Questions & Answers

Which factor is important to consider when buying a home air conditioning unit that is supposed to last several years?

Reliability and efficiency are two of the factors of the most important that should be considered when buying a new air conditioner as well as furnace. Sizing is also an important consideration. A unit that is not properly sized will affect the efficiency and may not last as long as a unit that is properly sized. Bigger is not better in this case. Also, choose a company to install your equipment that will be around to service it and warranty any repairs.

How well does a furnace humidifier work?

Catherine Kolkoski | Jun 3, 2022

They work very well. In the winter, the humidifier is set to 30 to 35% to bring the humidity level inside a home to 35%. In our experience, we can't think of a single time we have not been able to maintain a 35% humidity level with a humidifier. They work very well. A bypass humidifier is the preferred equipment choice. The bypass humidifier has the least number of moving parts and is the most affordable. To maintain a bypass humidifier, change the water panel once a year, preferably before the start of the winter season.

What is the purpose of a humidifier?

The purpose of a humidifier is to add humidity to the air. When the relative humidity inside and outside the house is relatively low in the winter, like in Kansas and Missouri, a humidifier replaces or adds moisture in the air creating a more comfortable environment. When replacing your AC equipment, be sure to choose the correct size. The air conditioners size helps to take out the humidity out of the air automatically. That's what an air conditioner does.

Are whole house humidifiers worth the money?

Whole house humidifiers are worth the money because they add comfort to your home by adding humidity to dry air. In Kansas and Missouri, the air is dry in the winter. The humidifier is worth the money for health reasons. Of course, everyone is different regarding how they are affected by dry air. Some homeowners have to have a humidifier, and others do not want a humidifier. A whole-house humidifier is worth it because it also protects wood furniture, floors and collectibles. Of course, a humidifier is always a preference and not a mandatory piece of equipment.

How do you add a humidifier to a furnace?

Catherine Kolkoski | Jun 3, 2022

Humidifiers are attached to the system's ductwork, usually close to the furnace by the supply air or return air Plenum. Mount the humidifier on the ductwork near a waterline. A qualified technician supplies power and water to the humidifier. In most cases, the power is used from the furnace as long as it's 24V power.
