📏 Which Size Fits My Home?
| Home construction | AprilAire 500 (12 gal/day) | AprilAire 600 (17 gal/day) |
|---|---|---|
| Tight (newer, well sealed) | up to ~3,500 sq ft | up to ~5,000 sq ft |
| Average | up to ~1,750 sq ft | up to ~2,500 sq ft |
| Loose (older, drafty) | up to ~1,150 sq ft | up to ~1,650 sq ft |
Approximate coverage worked out from AprilAire's sizing table. Older, leakier homes need much more moisture. We confirm the right model when we check your furnace and ductwork.
💡 Simple yearly maintenance: replace the water panel once per heating season (Model 10 for the 500, Model 35 for the 600). We can do it during your annual furnace maintenance.
🌬️ Other Indoor Air Quality Upgrades
HRV and ERV ventilation
Balanced fresh-air ventilation for tightly built homes. An HRV recovers heat from stale outgoing air; an ERV also balances moisture.
Whole-home air cleaning
Media filter cabinets and duct-mounted air cleaners that work with your furnace or air handler.
Smart thermostats
ecobee and other smart thermostats installed, wired and set up with your system.
These are quoted per home. Tell us what you need and we will recommend the right equipment for your system.

🔧 What Standard Humidifier Installation Includes
- ✓ Humidifier mounted on your furnace supply or return plenum, with a 6" bypass duct
- ✓ Water supply connection to the humidifier
- ✓ Drain line to a nearby floor drain
- ✓ 24 V wiring to your furnace and set-up of the digital control
- ✓ Startup, leak check and humidity set-point set-up
- ✓ 1-year labour warranty from Bison Air
Extras such as a condensate pump if there is no floor drain nearby, a long water line run, or ductwork changes where the plenum has no room are quoted in writing before work starts. A humidifier needs a ducted forced-air system; it does not work with radiators or ductless heat pumps.

HRV vs. ERV: The Differences
HRV (Heat Recovery Ventilation) and ERV (Energy Recovery Ventilation) are two popular types of ventilation systems that are becoming increasingly common in homes and buildings today. Both systems have their unique advantages and differences, but they both aim to improve indoor air quality and reduce energy consumption.

Humidifier
A central humidifier is a device that is installed as part of a home's heating and cooling system to add moisture to the air. It works by introducing water vapor into the air as it passes through the HVAC (heating, ventilation, and air conditioning) system, increasing the relative humidity of the air in the home.
