if you have central air and a furnace, and its fairly new, isn't there a fresh air intake ? There is no recycling of stale air ? I leave my system fan on 24/7 - it doesn't only go on when the aircon/furnace is operating. I also change out the filters regularly.
If you have "leaky" windows you lose a lot of warmth/ cool air. We noticed a huge difference in the energy bills when we replaced our windows with efficient, energy star windows.

a whole house humidifier does this on a grand scale and you don't have to fill any reservoirs. They are not that expensive either. I was quoted $450 for a replacement but decided not to as the current one works fine.
Also handy if your orchids are spread around the house...
