Proudly Serving Sanford, Fayetteville & Raleigh-Durham, NC
The humidity level in your Triangle-area home can greatly impact your comfort. If the humidity is too high, it can make your home feel hotter than it is, which is especially detrimental during summer, increasing your cooling costs.
If the humidity is too low, your home can feel drier and cooler in the winter, plus the lack of humidity can dry out your skin, nose, and throat, leading to irritation and discomfort.
At Comfort First Heating & Cooling, we offer indoor air quality solutions, including whole-home humidifiers and dehumidifiers, to help keep your home at the ideal humidity level.
We’re your local HVAC experts, and with years of experience, you can count on us for all your heating, air conditioning, and air quality needs. We’re fully licensed and insured and you can count on us for great service, upfront pricing, and excellent customer reviews.

Whole-Home Humidifier Services
Forced-air heating systems, like furnaces, can strip moisture out of the air during the winter. This can make your home feel less comfortable and can force you to use more energy as you turn up the heat to compensate.
Whole-home humidifiers are installed in the ductwork and use steam, evaporation, or ultrasonic sound to introduce moisture to the air, improving your comfort and reducing irritation.
Some signs that your home could use a humidifier include increased static, frequent allergy symptoms, and increasing skin, eye, nose, and throat irritation.
Whole-Home Humidifier Installation
At Comfort First, we offer professional whole-home humidifier installations throughout the Triangle area. The benefits of adding a humidifier to your home include:

Whole-Home Dehumidifier Services
High humidity can make your home feel stuffy, sticky, and stagnant. If your AC unit can’t keep up with the humidity, a whole-home dehumidifier can help. Similar to an AC, it uses a refrigeration cycle to cool the air and let the moisture condense out of it.
Some signs that you may need a dehumidifier in your home include frequent problems with mold and mildew, condensation or moisture problems, water damage, increased insect activity, dust mite infestations, increased allergy symptoms, and respiratory issues like coughs or runny noses.

Frequently Asked Questions
What's the ideal indoor humidity level?
Humidity levels should be between 30% and 50% to ensure the ultimate comfort while protecting your home and health.
What's the difference between portable and whole-home humidifiers and dehumidifiers?
Portable humidifiers and dehumidifiers are stand-alone devices that can only serve one area of your home at a time.
They often require more maintenance than whole-home systems, such as refilling the tank on a humidifier or draining the tank on a dehumidifier, and they’re often less durable than whole-home systems.
How long do whole-home humidifiers and dehumidifiers last?
Most whole-home humidifiers and dehumidifiers will last 10 to 15 years with proper maintenance.
