Perfect Air,
Perfect Humidity
Temperature is just one factor in home comfort. A Trane whole-house humidifier keeps the air — and everyone breathing it — comfortable through dry North Bay winters.
Three Ways to Add Humidity

Steam Humidifier — Maximum Capacity
Covers homes up to 5,000 sq ft with up to 34.6 gallons per day — and operates independently of your furnace or heat pump cycle.
