GSHA Services, LTD installed an AprilAire 800 whole-home steam humidifier for a condominium owner in the South Loop neighborhood of Chicago, IL. High-rise condos with electric or fan-coil heating often have no furnace to attach a traditional bypass humidifier to, so the AprilAire 800 was the ideal solution: it generates its own steam electrically and injects it directly into the supply ductwork, delivering up to 34.6 gallons of humidity per day regardless of how the home is heated. Our technicians mounted the steam canister and control unit near the air handler, ran the steam dispersion tube into the supply plenum, connected the water feed and drain, wired a dedicated circuit and breaker for the unit, and installed an AprilAire digital humidistat so the homeowner can set and hold the exact indoor humidity level. Proper winter humidity protects hardwood floors and furniture, reduces static and dry skin, and makes the home feel warmer at lower thermostat settings. GSHA Services, LTD provides steam humidifier installation, whole-house humidifier service, and HVAC repair in Chicago, the South Loop, Printers Row, the West Loop, Streeterville, River North, and throughout Cook County, IL.
