For all the time we spend at home, it's amazing we don't always think about the quality of the air we breathe indoors. Hufford Heating and Air Conditioning of Milford, OH, has been providing comfort to homes and businesses in and around eastern Cincinnati for over 65 years, so they know a thing or two about the importance of breathing easy at home and at the office. One of the best ways to clear the air is with a humidifier, and there are a number of benefits that make adding one to your home a brilliant move.

Here are just a few of the reasons you should have a humidifier:

• Fortified Health: Many health benefits come along with the addition of moist air to the indoor environment. Not only do viruses and bacteria find moist air more difficult to traverse, but the humidifier will also improve any sinus issues you may have during the winter, and you'll even recover faster if you do come down with something.
• Sound Sleep: Hand-in-hand with the health improvements are the sleep-related benefits that will have you and your loved ones breathing easier and maybe even snoring less.

• Softer Skin: With all that dry air out of the way, your skin will have the chance to escape its damaging effects. Expect softer skin with less flaking, dryness, and the avoidance of other issues that tend to make skin less vibrant and more prone to the harsh reality of aging.
• Protected Surroundings: It won't just be you that reaps in the rewards that a humidifier provides. Any plants around the house will enjoy the moist air, living a longer, healthier life. Wood furnishing will also be less prone to the effects of dry air such as cracking and splitting.
• Quiet & Efficient: Best of all, humidifiers are both quiet and energy efficient. The warm, moist air will help lower your heating bills as well, keeping heat costs down during the cold months.
