During winter, humidity levels in the home can change rapidly. Bathing, cooking, candles, and drying clothes add moisture to the air, so it is important to be mindful of the balance between humidity, heat, and ventilation.
💧 Moisture in everyday life
Bathing, cooking, and wet laundry can increase the humidity level in your home. If the moisture is not removed, it can appear as condensation on the windows and make the air feel heavy and less comfortable.
🚿 Keep moisture where it occurs
After bathing, it is a good idea to keep the bathroom door closed and use extraction or brief ventilation. The same applies after cooking and using candles, so that moisture does not spread to the rest of the home.
👀 Keep an eye out for the signs
Condensation on the windows, stuffy air, or cold surfaces are signs that your home needs adjustment, either more airing or better ventilation.
A good indoor climate in winter is all about balance.
Too much moisture can cause problems, but too little moisture can also be annoying. Small habits and paying attention to the signals from your home can make a big difference in everyday life.
