Need Professional Advice..Humidifier Type Choice For Heat Pump Electrical Heating Unit? Bypass or True Steam?
I've had a few professionals in and have been given two options for a humidifier system for my home...First off, both my wife and daughter have eczema and our current humidifier is so old that it wasnt working at all for the past 5 years nor was it worth fixing (plus the professionals told me it was connected to the return and not the supply which is not the way it is supposed to be). So, I was given the option of a honeywell bypass humidifier and a truesteam humidifier (links are below). The true steam is about twice the cost installed (I need to have it installed because this is way over my head for home repairs). I have been told everything from that it doesnt matter which one to get to that one professional wouldnt even honeywell home humidifiers install the bypass in my type of home/heating unit (trying to push me toward the truesteam). Obviously from an outsider's perspective a set level of humidity is a set level of humidity. Setting at 40% is the same with one unit or the other. At the same time, I want my wife and daughter to be the most comfortable and if spending the extra money is worth it, then I will consider the truesteam more closely. Right now I have had a broken humidifier for the last 5 years that has been hooked to the return instead of the supply so I see the bypass as a possible huge improvement. However I've also been told by contractors that if you go with the bypass the results are minimal at best and to achieve true home comfort get the truesteam. Like I said, I will if it's worth it I will consider the truesteam but if I can save the cost for the same effect given my current situation, then I would like to go with the cheaper bypass one. Oh and by the way, from an energy saving standpoint, our water is paid through our complex so the difference in water by using the bypass model will not directly impact our bill in any major way whereas the truesteam may cause a significant rise in energy cost due to the electrical heater element. Figured I should just add that since it is a consideration.Let me know your professional thoughts...Many thanks and your help is greatly appreciated...Here are the links for the two types of units...(you may have to copy and paste the link)1) http://yourhome.honeywell.com/home/Products/Humidifiers/Whole-House+Bypass/HE225+265+Bypass+Humidifier.htm2) http://yourhome.honeywell.com/home/Products/Humidifiers/Whole-House+Steam/Whole-House+Steam.htm
