Should We Turn Off Humidifier in Summer?

There’s so much to love about having a humidifier for your home – however, one question that we are very often asked about is whether you should turn off your humidifier device during the summer. This point depends on several factors, which is why today, we’re looking at the key question of whether you need to turn off your humidifier device during the hot summer months. Or, could you carry on using your humidifier comfortably when the thermostat becomes redundant?

Should We Turn Off Our Humidifier During the Summer?

Should you turn off your humidifier during the summer? This isn’t necessarily an easy question to answer since it will depend on numerous different factors. With this thought in mind, we strongly recommend you try several different options to see what works best for you.

For Portable Humidifiers

If you have a small, handheld, or portable humidifier, you may not need to turn the device off in the summer – in fact, it could be very pleasant to have a little more moisture in the hot air. However, if the air in your home is already humid, we recommend turning the humidifier off during the summer. This simple change is crucial to prevent moisture from building up in your home and causing mold or structural concerns.

For Central Humidifiers

If you have a larger central humidifier, it may be better when the summer arrives to turn this off and rely on your air conditioning unit instead. Of course, this always varies from home to home. So, do a little trial and error to see which option keeps your home at its most comfortable!
