Seasonal changes and your local climate greatly affect your home's humidity. For a comfortable and healthy home, aim for a humidity level between 30-50%.
-
When the air in your home is too moist, it can feel hot and sticky, and it can worsen health conditions like asthma and allergies, making it more difficult to breathe.
-
On the other hand, when the air is too dry, you might notice dry skin, an irritated throat, or itchy eyes. Low humidity can also damage wood floors and furniture, causing them to warp or crack.
