True Innovation for Humidification Click For Next Slide

The Truth About Humidification Delivery Many humidifier manufacturers list output capacity in gallons per day (GPD), or the amount of moisture they can deliver in a 24-hour period while the furnace is running (plenum temp 120F-140F). But how do you know which ones really work and if a home is getting enough moisture? Comparing humidification delivery is a great place to start. Click For Next Slide

The Truth About Humidification Delivery Click For Next Slide Typically, the GPD claim is based on a home’s heating equipment running 100% of the time, for 24 hours a day at 120˚F. Since evaporative humidifiers are delivering 100% of this humidity output only when the furnace is running (and no furnace runs full-time), they rarely deliver more than 1-gallon of humidified air for every FOUR gallons they use. In other words, for every 1 gallon humidified, 3 gallons are being wasted down the drain!

The Truth About Humidification Delivery Click For Next Slide Added to this are portable humidifiers that only humidify in the room which they are located, not the whole house. They also need to be constantly re-filled with water, which can be a hassle. TrueSTEAM™ offers the most reliable, efficient levels of moisture because of its near 1:1 humidification delivery rate, regardless of equipment operation.

The Truth About Evaporative Another factor limiting today’s evaporative humidifier is that HVAC equipment is changing. - Dealers are selling more:  High efficiency % furnaces  Heat pumps  Variable speed Equipment changes negatively impact evaporative humidifier performance. Click For Next Slide Plenum Temps Airflow + = GPD OUTPUT

The Truth About Evaporative Because equipment is running less and at lower temperatures, a capacity rating of 18 GPD on the box is closer to 6 GPD actual output delivery. Click For Next Slide

The Truth About Evaporative HumidityWater waste down drain HumidityWater waste down drain Per Day412 0 Per Week Per Month Per 5 month Heating Season Plus, for every gallon evaporated, up to 3 gallons is wasted down the drain, which can increase homeowner water bills and is not an eco- friendly option. What does this mean over a 5-month heating season? See below… Click For Next Slide

So why are evaporative so popular? Today’s evaporative humidifiers are flexible… - High familiarity with contractors. 30+ year old technology. - Have high reliability - Can be installed at a much lower cost than steam - Install quickly …but bypass flow through humidifiers also experience issues - Reduced output due to equipment changes - Require large sections of available ducting and open space to install - Require the heat to be on in order to deliver humidity Reduced Output Leads to Callbacks Click For Next Slide

The Truth About Last-Generation Steam GREAT PERFORMANCE - Today’s steam humidifiers offer great benefits… - More output - Humidity on demand – when you need it by activating equipment - Reduced water consumption POOR RELIABILITY - Steam units have had reliability issues with sticking floats, burning heating elements and difficult maintenance - Can be difficult to install - leaves many opportunities on the table Click For Next Slide

Revolutionizing Steam Humidification The world of heating and cooling equipment is vastly different today than it was even a few years ago, with the trend towards high-efficiency, variable speed, dual-fuel and heat pump systems. Because of how these systems operate, yesterday's humidifiers often fail to deliver the humidification that homeowners desire. You told us that you needed a humidification system that operated independently of equipment. Click For Next Slide

Breakthrough Technology TrueSTEAM™ takes the best features from current steam humidifiers with their efficiency, performance and decreased water consumption, and combines it with the ease of installation, reliability and value of flow-through humidifiers. TrueSTEAM is different from others because it operates independent of equipment operation. And, with its near 1:1 humidification delivery rate, TrueSTEAM delivers the right amount of humidification to keep your customers satisfied. Click For Next Slide
