How to Increase Your Melbourne Home's Humidity

November 23, 2015

Your home's humidity plays a crucial part in your family's comfiness. As the temperatures change, humidity levels shift as well.

Dry air during winter weather in Melbourne can make your throat and nose feel raspy. It can also put you at a greater risk for colds and other sicknesses.

For ideal comfort, your rooms’ humidity levels should be between 35 and 50 percent.

Does your home’s air feel too dry in the winter or too damp in the summer? A whole-home humidifier from Service Experts Heating & Air Conditioning can make it better. We can help you choose the ideal option for your family during a free home comfort assessment.

5 Benefits of Balanced Home Humidity

Using a whole-home humidifier to heighten moisture levels can help your home feel cozier at a cooler temperature. This can save you more on heating expenses.

2. Contributes to a Healthy Environment

Correct humidity levels help alleviate dry skin quickly. It also conditions your sinuses and nasal passages, helping ease respiratory illnesses.

3. Preserves Your Flooring

Low humidity can damage wood furniture, hardwood flooring and paint in your home.

4. Decreases Static Electricity

Humidity that’s at the correct level can limit the possibility of static electricity and shocks.
