Though you may want a humidifier because the air in your home is too dry, it is also important to make sure that the air in your home is not too humid. With portable humidifiers, you have the luxury of moving your humidifier when a room becomes too humid. Aprilaire humidifiers are not portable, but work within your homes heating and cooling ventilation system and use sensors to monitor the humidity throughout the house and apply more or less humidity to areas of the house that need it.
Evaporation capacity measures the amount of water a humidifier can handle. This is an important spec because excess water can create mold and other harmful materials in your home. The evaporation capacity of the Aprilaire 600 is .70 gallons per hour.
Unless you live inside of a mansion, the Aprilaire 600 should provide enough humidifier power to keep the moisture in your home at a comfortable level. The Aprilaire 600 can humidify tightly-constructed homes of up to 4,000 square feet in size.
The Aprilaire 600 comes with an automatic digital control that allows you to change the humidity settings and also provides a reading of the temperature and vital signs of your Aprilaire 600 humidifier system.
