Humidity is an important factor in the comfort of the atmosphere of your home. In the summer the humidity in the outdoor air makes your house feel very hot and sticky. A properly sized air conditioning system will help remove the moisture from the air and make the whole house feel cool. In the winter months your furnace is constantly heating the air in your Bowmanville home and ultimately drying it out. The humidity in your home should be between 35 and 50 percent.
