Why we install Aprilaire

The indoor air quality specialists

Aprilaire invented the whole-home humidifier and still focuses on one thing: the air inside your house. Its products work with your existing heating and cooling system, so every room benefits.

Whole-home, not one room

Installed on your system, so the whole house gets the benefit, not just the room with a plug-in unit.

Healthier air

MERV 11 to 16 filtration, balanced humidity and fresh air help with allergies, dry skin and stuffy rooms.

Set it and forget it

Automatic controls hold the humidity you want and remind you when service is due.

Quiet and low upkeep

One filter or water panel a year on most models.
