Manage Indoor Humidity for Maximum Comfort

It doesn’t matter what type of climate it is you live in, the humidity level in the air can definitely affect the comfort of your home, not to mention how your HVAC units will function.


Every homeowner should do what is needed to manage ideal indoor humidity, especially when it involves tailoring your cooling and heating preferences to meet your home and your family’s needs.


The Basics of Indoor Humidity Levels


The right level of moisture inside your home can help ensure that your HVAC system is working efficiently. Simply put, the right humidity levels means your home is perfectly cool in the summer and comfortably warm in the winter.


If you do not maintain the proper level of humidity, your home could feel very uncomfortable to live in. But worse than that is how your family could become susceptible to chemical reactions and even respiratory disorders.


In addition to that, the wrong humidity levels can be damaging to both your home’s interior and exterior. One of the primary functions of an air conditioning system is removing unwanted moisture in your home. But it’s not always enough to remove all the excess moisture.


Manage Home Humidity Levels through the Seasons


It is recommended that you maintain a range of 45% to 55% humidity to manage illnesses and health effects.


Humidity changes with the seasons. For instance, summer air holds more moisture – therefore, the humidity is higher. Cold winter air, on the other hand, contains less water making the humidity lower. If you do not know it yet, you should know that too much or too little moisture in your air can result in a variety of health threats and illnesses.


In the summer, you should discontinue the use of humidifiers. Use exhaust fans and air conditioner to remove moisture indoors. During winter, you can use a portable room humidifier. It’s a good idea to have live houseplants indoors and to place water basins near the heating system. You can also make use of a whole house humidifier.


To solve any humidity level problems in your house you may also need other equipment like a whole home ventilation system.


Remember that seasonal humidity can affect the comfort of your home, so managing its levels all seasons can ensure that the time you spend at home with your family is more enjoyable.


If you’re concerned about managing humidity levels in your home, you should consult with a trusted HVAC professional to ensure that the system you have is keeping your home comfortable and healthy for you and your family.

Twin Tech was great; they were honest, reliable and very thorough. I would recommend their services and will definitely be using them in the future.

by Sheila C. Pickering on Twintech Heating and Cooling

Hi Dave, Thank You Dave for coming to my aid this past summer when my AC quit. Your men did a great job installing and cleaning the area. The unit is working very well and i would highly recommend your company TwinTech. Dave you delivered what you sold and i truly appreciate it.

by Darin O. Whitby on Twintech Heating and Cooling

My experience with TWINTECH has been excellent, start to finish. While doing market research I made a list of several local companies and called them for some high-level information. Dave was the first to call me back, and the only one to book a meeting to see my place in order to give an informed, accurate estimate. He reviewed the different AC makes and models with me, explained the technology, and made a recommendation appropriate to my home. The installation went smoothly. I had one post-installation issue – there was moderate noise/vibrations coming from the duct system. I called about this, booked an appointment, and the technician resolved the issue during the service call. I feel assured having a 10-year warranty on parts & labour. I would recommend TWINTECH to anyone considering an AC or furnace for their home. Regards,

Thank you for your attention to detail regarding my purchase of a new air conditioner. Twintech arrived at the appointed time and were totally professional on the installation process completing the job quickly. PS thanks for the assistance applying for the government rebate

by Sam C, Pickering on Twintech Heating and Cooling

Dave and the guys from Twintech did a great job of installing my AC. They came on time did a nice neat job and cleaned up after themselves! Do not waste your time call Twintech first.

by Mary W, Whitby on Twintech Heating and Cooling

My AC unit was not working at all and our furnace that was still working but not giving us any trouble was over 15 years old. So I had 3 heating companies come out to give us a quote on replacing both the AC and the furnace at the same time. Two companies right away recommended that I replace both units simply because they were old. Dave from twintech however suggested that we save some money and replace the AC only because it seemed to him that the furnace was still in great shape and was running fine. He told us that he would have his technicians inspect the furnace thoroughly when they had it apart to install the AC. My husband was at home when the furnace was apart and was very impressed when the tech took him downstairs to personally show him that the furnace was in excellent working condition. He also cleaned the furnace at no extra charge. So now I have an honest heating and AC company that I can highly recommend to other home owners. Great job Thank You!

by Scott B, Whitby on Twintech Heating and Cooling

I had made the decision to replace my furnace and AC earlier this year. After meeting with several HVAC contractors I decided to go with Dave and his company. Dave was on time, polite, friendly and very professional. He took the time to answer all my questions and to explain the scope of work that would be required to do the job. The technicians arrived on time did a professional installation and completed the job on schedule. They respected my home by putting down vinyl runners to protect my floors and did a very thorough clean up. I’m very pleased with my decision to go with Dave and his team. I would highly recommend them to anyone who is considering upgrading their furnace and air conditioner.

by Mel F, Oshawa on Twintech Heating and Cooling

I have no problem in recommending Dave and the TWINTECH team to any home owner who is looking for quality heating and AC products and expert service.

by Eric Y, Greenbank on Twintech Heating and Cooling

Dave was great in helping me get the proper units for my property, as well as getting them installed. The installers arrived when they said they would, and completed the project on time, and professionally. If I needed another furnace, I would use Dave again.

by Ed B., Whitby on Twintech Heating and Cooling

I have known Greg and Grant Dainty for many years and have used their company for my house and business. I recommended them also for my parents and sister and they all have been very satisfied with the quality of work for a reasonable price. I just recently had them install a new HVAC system in an older house and was very pleased with their work. Craig in Pickering. After meeting with various heating and air conditioning contractors I was referred to Twin Tech Heating and Cooling through a family member. Greg and Grant arrived at my home and provided me with an estimate and a plan as to how they were going to remove and replace my furnace and air conditioner. On the day of install Greg and Grant arrived at my home on time and were very professional and extremely courteous as to any questions or concerns that I had. The removal and install was truly professional and the attention to detail was exactly what I was looking for. I’ve seen many installs from other contractors and I couldn’t be any happier to have had such a clean looking install. The sheet metal work, ducting and venting all look fantastic. Upon completion Greg and Grant left me feeling extremely happy and very fortunate of a job well done. Thanks again Twin Tech!!

TwinTech is an excellent and honest company! I called them for a second opinion after being told by another company that I needed to replace my furnace. Turns out this was not the case at all!

I definitely recommend TwinTech!
