Humidity can be tricky. No matter what type of climate you live in—dry or humid—you always ideally want to keep your indoor humidity between 40-60 percent. Whether it’s too high or too dry, humidity can impact Indoor Air Quality and, ultimately, your family’s well-being. From asthma to allergies, dust mites to mold spores, and more, get a handle on your indoor humidity to optimize your family’s health.”

The AprilAire Humidity and Health Blueprint

As we head into the winter months in much of the United States, it’s more important than ever to aim for 40-60% humidity in your home. Here are five key benefits of humidity control:

Improved Health

Influenza and other common viruses thrive in dry environments and are easily transmitted into the air in your home. This can lead to the rapid spread of illnesses.

Keeping the air in your home at the appropriate humidity level makes it more difficult for viruses to take hold.

Elimination of Pests

Mold and pests thrive in moist environments, while bacteria spreads easily with dry air. Keep these problems under control with humidity between 40-60%.

Alleviated Allergies

Fall and winter can be a challenging time for sufferers of asthma, eczema, and even allergies with the increased time spent indoors. Dried out sinuses, dry and itchy patches of skin, chapped lips, and dry or persistent coughing are all symptoms of low relative humidity that can be alleviated by restoring Healthy Humidity levels.

Improved Sleep

Proper humidity is important for sleep in terms of comfort and congestion. Too much humidity can make you hot and sweaty because it prevents the moisture from evaporating off your body. A lack of moisture in the air can dry out your nasal passages and cause snoring, along with that feeling of congestion that often comes during the winter months.

When the humidity is between 40-60%, the air has enough moisture for easy breathing and is still dry enough to not feel heavy.

Lower Stress Levels

Better sleep and less illness contribute to lower levels of stress and better overall health.

With the preservation of the furniture, wood floors, and paint in your home, and lower energy and heating bills, humidity control delivers several benefits throughout your home.

You can live a happier, healthier life by maintaining indoor humidity all year long. AprilAire whole-home humidifiers and dehumidifiers offer seamless, energy-efficient ways to improve your Indoor Air Quality in your Healthy Home.
