While you are getting your mufflers and your balaclava ready, you will be better off getting a slant fin humidifier or two as well.
So what is up with Andy you say?
Writing post upon post about getting yourself a humidifier so that you can do what exactly?
Breather easy? After all aren’t humidifiers for people with asthma and those who suffer from other respiratory disorders of some kind? Well, long answer short, no they aren’t. A humidifier is the perfect compliment to you heating system and your boiler, no matter what size they are. And the best part is that you don’t have to pay as much.
The whole point of a heater or a basement boiler is to make the air in your home or your office; your immediate surroundings really more comfortable so that you don’t have to wear a balaclava and ear muffs inside the office for heavens’ sake. The problem with that is that however as much as you try to get the weather heated up a bit, you end up destroying it a bit and moving it away from the ideal level that you desire.
This means that you will end up with the heat turned up high and the humidity levels in the room will tank. This will make the room extremely uncomfortable as it brings a bunch of other problems with it. Many people experience itch nasal tracts and thats while I, like may other people in my office would suffer from watery eye which made working impossible until someone figured out what the problem was and got the upper management to get us a couple of the slant fin humidifiers.
They are extremely easy to operate and will make being in an artificially heated environment the breeze it is supposed to be both for your and your body. And like the old adage goes, a healthy body is the only way to a productive mind.
