Is Your Humidity Under Control?

Unhealthy Air

Trouble breathing is a common symptom of allergies and the main struggle of those with asthma. Excess humidity in the home creates conditions that are perfect for mold and insects like dust mites. Mold is a common environmental allergen and sends spores throughout the home. Mite are also on eo fht emajor indoor triggers for people with allergies and asthma.

Dust mites thrive in conditions whewre the relative humidity exceeds 50%.

Bad Odors

Excess moisture in your home can be obvious. You may smell musty odors, see mold growing or feel clammy. High humidity can also allow viruses and bacteria to thrive in your home's air.

Damage to Your Home

Too much moisture can negatively impact your home's insulation and foundation. High humidity can lead to warping and damage to wood floors and trim. Moisture can also get trapped in carpeting, furniture and drapes.

Wasting Energy

Air that has too much humidity in it actually makes you feel warmer. We've all heard the saying, it's not the head, it's the humidity. That's especially true in summer months when many homeowners make the mistake of over-cooling their homes in an effort to mitigate high humidity. Not only do they end up expanding ore energy, they still can't get comfortable because an air conditioner is not an effective dehumidifier.

High Humidity in Every Region

If you live in a northern climate, indoor humidity is especially pronounced in teh summertime when the outdoor humidity is also high. You're likely to notice it more in your basement, where moisture is easily trapped. Conversely, southern climates suffer from excess indoor humidity year-round, and may see a spike during cooler months when the air conditioner does not run.
