The combination of heated air and tightly insulated houses can reduce humidity indoors, resulting in scratchy throats, frequent nosebleeds, dry skin, and static electricity in the winter.
The simple solution to all these problems is to install a humidifier, which increases the moisture levels in specific rooms or throughout the entire house.
A humidity level of 35 to 50 percent is considered to be the most comfortable, depending on the individual. All of these problems can be solved by installing a humidifier, which can be used to increase moisture levels in specific rooms or throughout the entire house. Depending on personal preferences, indoor humidity levels between 35 and 50 percent are considered the most comfortable. Humidistats, which sense moisture in the air and allow you to maintain the desired level of humidity, are typically used to control whole-house humidifiers. An electrical contact in the humidistat closes as the humidity level in a space drops, turning it on. As humidity levels rise, the electrical contacts open, turning off the unit. In the summer months, when excess moisture becomes a problem, some models can control a dehumidifier. Your home’s square footage, as well as its construction and insulation, determine the amount of humidification you need.
