With the right HVAC equipment in your arsenal this winter, you will turn a blind eye to cold and flu season.

Cold winter weather can be severe and awful if you don't take the proper preventative measures. Many people simply accept the cruel reality that exposure to coughing, sneezing, stuffy coworkers and friends will get them in the end. But it doesn't have to be like this! With proper HVAC equipment, you and your immune system could be riding high this holiday season.

Here are the three best reasons to consider a humidifier for your HVAC equipment:

1. Kick Dry Air to the Curb.

Cold weather typically is dry weather, too. This combination can have a serious impact on your skin, your hair, your lips, and your respiratory system. Many people experience it most directly in the form of waking up in the morning with a scratchy, itchy throat. A humidifier eliminates these problems and makes sure you get good sleep to keep your immune system fighting strongly.

2. Minimize Germs, Mold, and Bacteria.

Most people know that changing the filter on their HVAC system is crucial to keeping their homes comfortable and safe. If you don't regularly replace your HVAC system's filter, you could be breathing in all kinds of gross and potentially harmful particles that have accumulated and polluted your air. A humidifier keeps clean moisture in the air; the water can be replenished every night so it stays fresh and soothing.

3. Balance Indoor Humidity Levels.

Keeping your indoor temperature and humidity levels regulated in a consistent way is important for keeping chills and other cold/flu symptoms at bay. If the worst befalls you and you do get sick, a humidifier will help you on your way to a speedy recovery.
