Experts recommend humidity levels in your home be around 30-50%; humidity levels below this can cause issues for your health and home. Prolonged exposure to dry air causes health problems you may not attribute to a lack of home humidity. Externally, a lack of water vapor in the air can cause dry skin and itchy eyes. Internally, allergies, bloody noses, headaches, dry throat, and more may plague you.
Poor humidity affects your home’s indoor air quality, making your home a less comfortable place to be. When the air does not have enough humidity, it will take moisture from your home’s structure, which causes damage to the house and any wood furniture. On the contrary, a proper humidity level grants better sleep, prevents colds, and can help you recover from illness quicker. It can also help lower heating repairs and bills since moisture makes the air feel warmer.
