Static discharge damages sensitive electronics. Proper humidification is critical to your business.

High Capacity Commercial Humidification

Controlling the humidity of your commercial facility is an important part of your building's health, industrial process and profit. Whether your industry is related to food production, food preparation, manufacturing, computer server / data centers or other specialized commercial applications . . . each industry has its own unique indoor climate control needs.

The problem you encounter during colder months is a lack of humidity in the air. The colder the temperature is outside, the more heating is typically needed inside. The addition of heat to your indoor environment will cause a drying effect lowering the indoor relative humidity.

The apparent temperature is the general term used for the perceived temperature caused by the combined effects of air temperature, relative humidity and when applicable wind speed. In simple terms it is the feels like temperature.

As you heat your facility you must maintain a proper level of humidity to protect your processes, products and equipment. Employee comfort can be effected as well increasing sick time, reducing employee performance and mood. AEM Mechanical Services is both qualified and experienced in providing solutions for your indoor humidity needs.

The Effect's of Too Little Humidity Can Be Costly

  • Static Electricity can build up in dry conditions causing production issues as parts cling together.
  • Static Discharge can cause serious damage to production equipment, especially causing issues with electronic equipment and computers.
  • Low humidity can often effect the setting or curing process for adhesives, it can also make components sensitive to humidity dry out.
  • Worker Performance is greatly influenced by the conditions in which they work. Any improvement that will create a better working environment will increase productivity and quality.

Proper Humidity Reduces Heating Costs

Because the feels like temperature is often higher than the actual temperature, you may be able to maintain a cooler temperature reducing the cost of heating your facility. With proper humidity the air feels warmer and reduces the risks associated with dry air.

Where do you need to worry about proper humidity? Everywhere.

  • Production floor
  • Office area
  • Storage area
  • Common areas like bathrooms and lobbies

Proper humidity levels for your entire facility will ultimately provide you opportunities to increase your profit while reducing your cost to produce your product.
