Relief is a personal thing and achieving your home’s model comfort level is something the team at Temp Air System Inc. is ready to help you achieve. Of course, staying comfortable and avoiding AC repair is something all homeowners can agree they want from their home comfort system. There are simple things that you can change to improve your comfort, like your thermostat, but a less obvious thing is the humidity levels. Humidity plays a major role in how comfortable you feel in your living space, and it’s often overlooked. The moisture levels in your home are possibly affecting your comfort levels along with your indoor air quality, that’s when a whole-home dehumidifier comes in as a comfort savior.

As the seasons alter in La Puente, we have stints where the humidity feels miserable. While you may think lowering your thermostat is the fix, it might be time to consider a dehumidifier. The optimal humidity for your health and comfort is between 30-50%. Besides feeling uncomfortable, how do you know if you have too much humidity in your home?

There are several signs to look for:
  • Musty odors
  • Cracked paint
  • The air feels thick
  • Condensation or frost on your windows
  • Peeling wallpaper

We often associate humidity with heat, but it doesn’t have to be hot to be humid. The heat just makes the humidity more uncomfortable. Fall and late spring are regularly high humidity seasons and times when it’s raining or early in the morning and evening.

Before you spend too much time assessing signs of extra humidity in your home, give the experts at Temp Air System Inc. in La Puente a call. Our trained experts can guide you on the best ways to keep your home comfortable at the perfect amount of humidity.
