WHAT IS HUMIDITY?  SHOULD YOU DEHUMIDIFY YOUR HOME?

The amount of water vapor found in the air is referred to as Humidity. The water vapor is in gaseous state and also invisible. In most cases, humidity indicates the presence of dew, fog, or also precipitation. It is very essential to maintain appropriate humidity levels in our homes. The recommended indoor humidity level is between 40-50%. In Canton, GA where humidity is as high as 86%, the humidity will always find its way to the houses.

The main reason as to why you need to dehumidify your home is in order to maintain a good healthy condition of a home. Most of the allergies are triggered by mildew, mold, and dust mites that grow well in humid environments. For example, Mold allergies may cause childhood asthma which is a deadly disease for children and therefore, it is for this main reason that you need to maintain the humidity level of your home and more so in Canton GA. By so doing, you make your home less conducive to mold, dust mites, and mildew.
