Prevent Overly Moist Air

What is Moist Air in Your House?

There’s a certain level of moisture that’s acceptable in your home’s indoor air but just like in most things moderation is key. The optimal relative humidity range is from 40 to 60 percent. Anything that is above this 60 percent threshold is considered moist air. This air usually resides in basements and crawl spaces where homes are particularly vulnerable to moisture from the ground. While balanced humidity exists between 40 and 60%, it’s important to remember that outdoor temperature and other home factors will impact what relative humidity level is attainable and recommended for your house. Talk with your AprilAire Healthy Air Professional to learn more.

So, to answer more specifically about what is moist air, it is overly humid air that can wreak havoc on a home’s indoor environment. Mold, mildew, other allergens, and pests thrive in overly moist conditions. These irritants can cause health problems, musty smells, and home damage. It is also uncomfortable making you sweat and leave you feeling dehydrated.

Reducing moist air in house can help prevent home repairs, health problems, and an uncomfortable living arrangement.
