How to Balance High Humidity at Home During Florida's Summers

In the hot, muggy summers in Bradenton, Florida, you must address high humidity and temperatures to stay cool and comfortable indoors. An HVAC system regulates both.

Comfort and Health in Your Home

Health experts recommend keeping humidity levels between 40 and 60 percent. If too low, skin and mucous membranes become dry. If too humid, living spaces feel clammy and high moisture creates an environment favorable to microbial growth.

Ways to Regulate Humidity

Dehumidifiers can be integrated into the HVAC system to keep your living space comfortable. Other products — ultraviolet lights, air cleaners, high quality air filters and whole-house ventilators — work with the air conditioner to improve air quality.

The HVAC experts at Air & Energy can help regulate humidity and improve air quality in your home. Call 941-778-0773 today.
