Family owned and operated company since 1954. Quality workmanship is one of our best qualities. Excellent customer service. With over 50 years of experience in the HVAC industry, we are confident we will meet and exceed your expectations. Our quality and attention to detail are unrivaled by the competition. We have served the residents of St. Louis with three generations of Vitts, and are raising the fourth. Our longevity is a testimony to our service and clients' trust. We have an excellent rating with the BBB and are N.A.T.E. Certified technicians. One major difference and benefit of our company is custom duct fittings. Custom fittings give your unit a longer, more reliable shelf life and a professional looking installation. Just ask to see our before and after pictures and you'll see the Vitt difference! Also, NONE of our employees are paid on commission, and do not get bonuses based on sales. What does that mean? That guarantees that we will not try selling you something you do not need. Only if your system is non-repairable, or at your request will we suggest purchasing a new system. We will not have a "salesman" show up at your door whose main objective is to sell you something. We are there to make you happy and comfortable, that's it. NO SUBS. CHARGES BY THE HOUR. NO TRAVEL CHARGES. ADDITIONAL CHARGE FOR AFTER- HOURS SERVICE MAY APPLY
"I'd give zero stars if I could. Made an appt for 12:00-4:00 with me getting a call from the tech Coll Mcminn around 3:47 saying he was on his way and will be 35 minutes. He said that before he comes out it would be $125 just to come out and then another $275 to diagnose the leak in my system. So $400 just to find the problem. As we continued talking I got the feeling like he was just done for the day and was trying to talk me in to getting a quote for a new system so he wouldn't have to come out. I told him the system is 15 years old which isn't that old but he said it was probably in the coils which would require replacing half the system anyway. I only called them because they moved my AC line a few years back and was thinking it possible that they didn't do that properly to begin with which could be the source of the leak. The PVC work that they did was faulty and they had to come back to fix that. Not a great company if you ask me."

Unless you're very skilled with HVAC, plumbing, and electrical work, it's best to hire a professional. Improper installation can damage your HVAC system, increase energy bills, and reduce equipment lifespan. A pro will ensure everything is installed correctly and safely.
It depends on your maintenance preferences and budget. Drum humidifiers cost less upfront but require more frequent maintenance to prevent mold growth. Flow-through humidifiers are a bit more expensive but need less upkeep because they have fewer parts that can harbor mold. Consider how much maintenance you're willing to do when choosing between the two.
Repairing a whole-house humidifier costs an average of $230, with prices ranging up to $500 depending on the type of unit, extent of the repair, and labor fees in your area. Units integrated into your ductwork or servicing larger homes may incur higher repair costs. Regular maintenance can help prevent expensive repairs and extend the life of your humidifier, saving you money in the long run.
If your home's humidity level drops below 30%, a whole-house humidifier can help. Dry air can lead to discomfort and health issues. Energy Star recommends keeping indoor humidity between 30% and 50%. In colder regions, aim for 30% to 40% in winter to prevent window condensation. If your home has too much humidity, you may need a whole-house dehumidifier.
Whole-house humidifiers typically last 10 to 15 years. If your unit is nearing this age or isn't working well, it might be time to replace it. Upgrading can improve efficiency and save on energy costs. Consult a professional to assess your unit.
A whole-house humidifier is installed directly into your HVAC system, usually near the furnace or air handler. It connects to your ductwork and plumbing. Because installation involves integrating with existing systems, it's best to hire a professional to ensure everything works safely and efficiently.
If you're experiencing issues with your humidifier, check out our Humidifier Repair Cost Guide for more details.
