The average lifespan of a humidifier is around 10 to 15 years. Once your humidifier passes that age, it is more likely to require frequent repairs or suffer declines in functionality. If your humidifier is starting to experience frequent issues and is over 10 years of age, you may want to consider contacting one of our professionals to inspect the unit.

If you notice a foul odor coming from your home’s humidifier, stop using it immediately until it can be repaired! The foul smell could be indicative of mold or another type of infestation. If you sense a burning odor coming from your humidifier, that is typically a sign of an electrical problem that needs to be addressed as soon as possible by a licensed professional!

In the event that your humidifier is on but it won’t run, there is likely an internal component that is in need of repair. Be sure to double check the power source before assuming the issue is with your humidifier.

A humidistat acts for your humidifier like a thermostat does for your HVAC system. Any error with the humidistat will result in the humidifier not operating as it should, possibly making your home too humid or not humid enough. When humidistats are not functioning properly, it is typically best just to replace them.
