Indoor climate facts: Does warm or cold air contain the most moisture?

When it comes to indoor climate, humidity is one of the most important factors to consider. But what actually contains the most moisture - warm or cold air? Let's dive into this question and see what the experts say.

According to DMI, the air's water vapor content, also known as humidity, is crucial for our well-being and comfort in the indoor climate. When talking about warm air versus cold air, it is important to understand the difference between relative and absolute humidity, as the Knowledge Center for Crafts and Building Technology explains.

According to Energihjem.dk , warm air can actually hold more moisture than cold air. This is because warm air has a greater capacity to hold water vapor than cold air. When warm air cools, the relative humidity will increase, as the same amount of water vapor will make up a larger portion of the cool air's total capacity.

In addition, the Danish Building Research Institute points out the importance of maintaining the right humidity in the indoor climate to avoid problems such as mold and poor air quality.
