Humidity is often
overlooked as a major factor that contributes to or detracts from
the comfort of your home. However, humidity above or below the
optimal range can have significant impact on your comfort and
health; in the fall and winter months, low humidity levels outside
contribute to dry, uncomfortable air inside.
People tend to feel most comfortable at a relative humidity of about
45%, although for maximum comfort that doesn’t encourage bacteria
growth, the optimal range is between 25% and 55%. With proper
humidification, in the winter time, you can set your thermostat at
69° F if you have 55% RH and it will provide you and your family
comfort as if you set your thermostat at 72 ° F with 30% RH.
And right about now, with all these percentages being thrown around,
you’re probably wondering what all this has to do with you and your
home. Well, here’s the breakdown:
|
Effects of Low Humidity
Scratchy nose and throat Dry eyes and skin Aggravated asthma and allergies Nosebleeds Static electricity Cooler-feeling air Unhealthy houseplants Dry hardwood floors
Damaged musical instruments |

Benefits of Optimal Humidity Levels Lower utility bills Warmer-feeling air
Plus, you won't experience any of the discomforts listed on the left:
no more scratchy nose and throat, no more dry eyes and
skin, lessened or eliminated static electricity and
healthier house plants!
