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.

by Aaron on Twintech Heating and Cooling

We are very happy to recommend this company to everyone. Our furnace broke down on Sunday morning. We phoned them and before noon Grant the owner showed up. He worked on the furnace for about a hour not wanting to give up to fix the problem. The furnace was 17 years old. I was the one talking about replacing it. End result was the next day it was all done. On the Sunday Bob came over with heaters to warm up the house. We decided to replace the water heater at the same time. Thanks Grant for the excellent work. Thumbs up.

by Linda on Twintech Heating and Cooling

Right on time. Explained how to work the HRV in a different way so the house would not be so dry. Changed my whole house water filter for me as well. Friendly, helpful, caring service!

by Robert Rogers on Twintech Heating and Cooling

by Ruth on Twintech Heating and Cooling

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 did not need a new furnace. TwinTech did not push to make an unnecessary sale and saved me from a huge expense. Bob and Mitch were extremely professional and above all honest! I definitely recommend TwinTech!

by Anna Chin on Twintech Heating and Cooling

Amazing experience with TwinTech Heating & Cooling! Their team was professional, knowledgeable, and efficient from start to finish. They installed my new furnace quickly and left everything spotless. The technicians took the time to explain everything and made sure I was comfortable with the system before they left. Great customer service and fair pricing. I highly recommend them for anyone needing HVAC services!

by Connor Agnew on Twintech Heating and Cooling

Great experience all around. Bob was sharp and easy to talk to, and Greg handled the installation perfectly. Would hire them again in a heartbeat.

by Trevor Owens on Twintech Heating and Cooling

I returned from vacation to find my AC unit on the Fritz. After calling way too many places I connected with TwinTech. I’ve used the company in the past for my furnace so I was happy when I recognized Greg at my front door. He’s great and the service is always top notch. I’d highly recommend using twintech for honest, superior service in the Durham region. Thanks!

by Nicole Alain on Twintech Heating and Cooling

I called Twin Tech when my air conditioning stopped working. Greg came over to diagnose the issue - the same day. He was able to diagnose the issue and resolve it quite quickly. Although it was a quick fix, Greg was very thorough in explaining the issue and provided great advice. Not to mention, I felt very comfortable having Greg in my home - which I consider very important when hiring a service provider. Twin Tech will be my go-to from now on. Thank you!!

by Courtney Parkes on Twintech Heating and Cooling

Bob, Greg & Mitch make a great team! Quick appointment times, super knowledgeable, expert troubleshooting capabilities & very customer service oriented.
I would highly recommend them for all of your HVAC needs! Great job guys!!
