Many houses face an excess level of indoor moisture. There are lots of different reasons that cause this high moisture level, but there are also many easy ways to control and reduce moisture. Check them out:
1. Slightly change habits
A normal family of 3 people produces 12 litres of water vapour a day on average by carrying out its daily activities. If you, for instance, take less hotter and shorter showers, and cover the pots while cooking, this would already diminish the amount of water vapour and help decrease home moisture.Â
2. Natural ventilation
Another easy way to control moisture is to keep your house thoroughly ventilated. Use exhaust fans in moisture hotspots such as the bathroom and kitchen and open your windows on a regular basis in order to avoid a humid environment.
3. HVAC systems
When natural ventilation does not sufficiently remove moisture, air conditioning is a perfect solution. The hot or cold air produced from the air conditioner dries up the air, thus reducing the high moisture in the room.
4. Place a moisture absorber
A good and effective solution to help get rid of excess moisture in the home is to place a moisture absorber. This device provides superior moisture absorption and highly efficient odour neutralisation, which helps to protect the room from musty air and mildew.
Small and easy actions can have big and valuable effects. Carry them out now and enjoy the comfort of your home.
