Help for optimizing the indoor climate
What is temperature and how is it measured?
Temperature is a measure of the thermal energy in a substance or area. When we talk about temperature in connection with indoor climate, we are referring to the ambient air temperature, which is of great importance for our comfort and well-being. Air temperature is typically measured in degrees Celsius (°C) using thermometers, either analog or digital.
Air temperature plays an important role in regulating our body heat. A comfortable room temperature is typically between 20-22°C, but preferences may vary depending on individual needs and activity levels.
What is humidity?
Humidity refers to the amount of water vapor in the air compared to the maximum amount of water vapor the air can hold at a given temperature. Humidity is measured in percent (%) and can have a major impact on our health and comfort. Too much humidity can lead to mold, mildew, and respiratory problems, while too little humidity can cause dry mucous membranes, irritation, and static electricity.
According to DMI , the optimal humidity in an indoor environment is between 30-60%, with 40-50% considered ideal. To maintain the right indoor climate, it is recommended to measure and regulate the humidity regularly.
Humidity FAQ
How does humidity affect the indoor climate?
Humidity has a major impact on air quality, comfort and health in a room. Adequate humidity can reduce the risk of mold, dry mucous membranes and respiratory problems.
How can I measure humidity at home?
You can measure humidity at home using a hygrometer, which is a simple instrument for measuring humidity. There are analog and digital hygrometers, which can be a useful investment in ensuring a healthy indoor climate.
What consequences can incorrect humidity have?
Incorrect humidity can lead to the growth of mold, bacteria, and other harmful microorganisms in a room. It can also negatively affect wooden furniture, electronics, and general indoor climate conditions.
