Most homeowners experience the effects of indoor RH every day,
even if they don’t realize it. Anyone who has taken a hot shower in
winter knows the feeling of stepping out into a muggy bathroom
that’s 75 degrees with 70% humidity. It’s warm and cozy even
though you’ve left the hot water. However, step out into the hallway
and things feel drastically different! While the temperature is only
a few degrees cooler, the RH is closer to 10%, making you feel like
it’s frigid in the rest of the house. Turning up the heat won’t help if
RH is not controlled, because the evaporative cooling process will
continue. No doubt you have also experienced painful static shock
in the winter time. This is caused by the dry air that is in everyone’s
house during the heating season. Improving comfort requires
maintaining proper RH (35 – 45%) throughout the house.
Humidity can’t be seen, touched, or smelled. However, when properly
controlled, humidity offers many proven benefits. Humidification
during the heating season not only provides comfort, it helps protect
the home and its furnishings from the harmful effects of air that’s too
dry. In addition, physicians often recommend controlling humidity
to guard against dry skin, hair, and scratchy throats. It also reduces
undesirable winter-time static electricity. Humidifier in Rochester Aprilaire in Rochester
