Reduce Humidity
If you are at home and the humidity is sticking to your skin, it is a problem.
To avoid the accumulation of mold and fungus, the level of humidity in your home needs to be maintained at a comfortable level. If the air is too dry or too moist, the situation must be remedied.
- Keep the home well ventilated. Take advantage of the fresh air outdoors, by opening your windows for a few minutes every day.
- Dry your clothes outside. It is much faster and more efficient! When the weather is unpleasant, you can also use the dryer.
- Check the airtightness and insulation of your home. Temperature changes and the development of rising capillary moisture are good indications of a problem.
- Keep an eye on your ventilation system. Consider having it replaced if it is inadequate.
Keep in mind that, for comfort, it is important to maintain an average level of humidity (50%) inside and that extremes are not recommended. To measure the level of humidity in your home and ensure compliance, buy a hygrometer.
