Climate control isn’t just about keeping the temperature at an ideal level of comfort.
- Humidity levels also play a sizable part in indoor comfort; after all, there is a difference between being comfortably warm with the official level of moisture in the air and warm with excessively dry air! Conversely, there is a difference between being comfortably cool with an appropriate level of moisture in the air, versus being cool; however, enjoying the air is too wet.
Nobody likes a damp, freezing feeling and heat that dries the skin is irritating, and even worse, air quality will also greatly suffer if you do not have the official humidity levels in your home. Excessive humidity breeds lots of mold and mildew, for a single, so you shall be breathing that exhausting stuff in unless you get it addressed. Also, if your home is largely made of wooden materials, you might find that certain parts will begin to rot! But thankfully, there are devices out there available for purchase that can regulate humidity levels within your home, and some heating as well as A/C systems are naturally better at this than others… However, you can always buy either a dehumidifier or humidifier to install alongside your central heating as well as A/C plan to combat excessive moisture levels or introduce appropriate moisture levels. This will prevent that nasty, damp freezing feeling and miserable, dried skin depending on what ails you. You may also find yourself sneezing less, and generally having a better time with your flu symptoms, because the irritants present in the air will be greatly lessened by having official humidity levels in your own home.
