Humidification

How Dry You Are? How Moist Should You Be?

Relative humidity is more than relatively important when it comes to healthy
and comfortable indoor living. Plus, at the right levels, you can save
money on your fuel bill.

Too much humidity is a bad thing, right? After all, it creates and promotes
an environment where bacteria, mold, various fungi and dust mites not only
grow, but flourish!

But hang on a sec...doesn't dry air cause it's own fair share of problems?
You bet. In fact, excessively dry indoor air can weaken your immune system
from harmful viruses and respiratory ailments.

The fact is, dry air and damp air both have their fair share of problems.
So what's the answer? A whole-house, combined humidification and
dehumidification system where you can control and maintain the proper levels
of relative humidity, which most experts agree are between 40%-55%.

Before going any further, let's define the very term this article is all
about:

"Relative Humidity" is the moisture content in the air as a percentage of
the total
amount of moisture air can actually hold. So, at a relative humidity of
40%,
air is holding 40% of its full potential.

With a whole-house humidifier from Aux Mechanical, you can maintain ideal
levels of humidity all year long. In the process, you can save 5% or more
on your annual fuel bill. More importantly, you'll add immeasurably to your
family's indoor comfort while helping to prevent and control problems with
asthma, allergies, colds and flus, and more.

Where do the energy savings come from? Cold air is dry, and in dry air,
moisture evaporates from your skin. That, in turn, tends to cool you off.
So, by setting the thermostat at 69° with a relative humidity of 35%, you'll
feel just as warm as you would in 72° air with 19% relative humidity.

Bottom line, you want to dehumidify your home in warm weather, and add
humidity when it's cold. In fact, act now, and save $100 on a whole-house
humidification system from Aux Mechanical.
