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. 1-Year Limited Mfr. Warranty.
When the humidity level in your home gets below 50%, dust mites slow down.
Humidity under 40% actually 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.
Features:
Check the humidity and temperature at a glance with the large, clear display.
See fluctuations because this gauge continuously displays the high/low humidity and temperature for the past 24 hours.
Easily check your indoor comfort level (humidity in relation to temperature) -- High, OK, or Low -- with the convenient graphic display of a house.
Finding a good spot for this gauge is no trouble, because it has a built-in magnet or stands alone.
Requires only 1 AA battery, not included. We offer batteries above for your convenience.
This monitor lives up to its name in accuracy; the temperature has a +/- 2 degree variance and the humidity has a +/- 5% variance.
Addie - 11/23/11 19:00 pmI was recently diagnosed with allergies to dust mites (among other things) and the doc recommended I monitor the humidity in my bedroom to be sure the humidity levels were unfriendly to dust mites. It was easy to set up and going and it assures me that the environment is dust mite unfriendly.

troy - 2/21/11 11:36 amI ordered this monitor about a month ago and it seems to work great. Very accurate. You can tell when ever someone is in the shower because the humidity will shoot up a couple of point's.
