💧 Humidity Levels

💧 Understanding Humidity

Relative Humidity is the amount of water vapor in the air compared to the maximum amount the air can hold at that temperature. It's expressed as a percentage.

Humidity Levels Guide:

• Below 30%: Very dry, may cause dry skin and irritation
• 30-50%: Comfortable for most people, ideal indoor level
• 50-70%: Moderate humidity, generally comfortable
• 70-80%: High humidity, may feel muggy and uncomfortable
• Above 80%: Very high humidity, oppressive feeling

🌡️ Dew Point Explained

The dew point is the temperature at which air becomes saturated with moisture and dew forms. It's a better indicator of comfort than relative humidity.

Dew Point Comfort Guide:

• Below 10°C: Dry and comfortable
• 10-15°C: Comfortable for most
• 15-20°C: Slightly uncomfortable, somewhat muggy
• 20-24°C: Uncomfortable, quite humid
• Above 24°C: Very humid and oppressive

💡 Humidity Tips

• Indoor Comfort: Maintain 40-60% humidity indoors for optimal comfort
• Health: Proper humidity reduces respiratory issues and static electricity
• Low Humidity: Use a humidifier and stay hydrated
• High Humidity: Use dehumidifiers and ensure good ventilation
• Exercise: High humidity makes exercise feel harder; adjust intensity accordingly
• Sleep: Slightly lower humidity (40-50%) is best for quality sleep
