Economical Way To Keep Tabs On Your Home's Relative Humidity
Knowing the relative humidity in your home is very important in controlling dust mites and mold since both thrive in moist settings. The relative humidity should remain in the range of 40-50% in hot, humid months, but may fall lower in cold, dry months. When the humidity level in your home gets below 50%, dust mites slow down. Humidity under 40% acutally kills and eliminates them altogether because it's too dry for them to survive (except in your bed where it's always warm and humid due to your body - this is why bed encasings are so critical). If your humidity is high, you may need to consider a dehumidifier such as the
Whirlpool Gold.
The Acu-Rite Indoor Thermometer makes it easy to monitor your home with many great features:
You can check the humidity and temperature at a glance with the large, clear display. The humidity appears in 3/4" numbers, and the temperature numbers are nearly 1/2" tall.
You can see fluctuations because this gauge continuously displays the minimum/maximum humidity and temperature for the past 24 hours.
You can easily check your indoor comfort level (humidity in relation to temperature) -- High, OK, or Low -- with the convenient graphic display of a house.
You can find a good spot for this gauge without any trouble, because it is only 3.06"H x 2.48"W x 1.29"D and has a built-in magnet and stand.
You can select Celsius or Fahrenheit at the touch of a button.
