Adding a humidifier to a heat pump? [View all]

The dry skin is going to make me insane if I don't end up with an infection from scratching first.

My installation is a 13 SEER Carrier heat pump/AC unit and I have a standalone room humidifier for overnight, but have had recommendations on this install (noting the cautions about mold and other airborne issues).

Any thoughts, suggestions, recommendations?
