What’s the difference between portable and whole-home humidifiers?

Portable humidifiers treat a single room. They usually need manual refilling and frequent cleaning. Whole-home humidifiers connect to your HVAC. They manage humidity throughout the house. Peter Levi installs and maintains whole-home systems in Northern California. We target about 30–45% humidity in winter and under 60% in summer. Proper humidity improves comfort. It helps protect wood and finishes. We serve Novato and Vacaville.
