Dealing with Home Humidity in Florida

Dealing with Home Humidity in Florida

We all love Florida’s sunny warm weather, but humid days and nights can lead to a stuffy home that’s downright uncomfortable. Apart from comfort, high humidity can cause a whole host of issues from mold and mildew, to wood rot and property damage.

Here are a few tips on how to deal with home humidity in Florida.

1. Exhaust Fans: Take advantage of your home’s exhaust fans and/or consider having additional exhaust fans installed. Strategically placed in bathrooms and kitchens, these fans effectively vent excessive moisture to the outside of the home.
2. Dehumidifier: Dehumidifiers are often an ideal solution for maintaining optimal humidity levels (usually between 40-60%) in home. Portable units can be placed in high humidity rooms or areas of the home, while whole-house units can be installed to tackle larger or more consistent issues.
