Health Problems
Humidity is an important factor of air quality, and, therefore, has a direct impact on your health. When the level of humidity is too high, the sweat cannot evaporate as quickly as it normally does, which interferes with your body's natural mechanism of thermoregulation. Moreover, extra humid environment is welcoming for various microorganisms that cause allergies and respiratory problems like asthma.
Mold
As you may already know, mold thrives in humid environments. If there is excessive moisture in your home, mold is 50% more likely to develop, especially in the areas where the moisture is concentrated, like corners and ceilings.
Bugs
Like mold, bugs 'prefer' a warm and humid environment, with temperatures of 75-80 degrees Fahrenheit and humidity levels of 70-80%. That means an increased level of moisture inside your home is welcoming for bed bugs and other sorts of pests.
Wood Deformation and Decay
Wood is a popular construction and decoration material, and when there is excessive moisture in your home, your wooden floors or furniture are at risk
Wood Deformation and Decay
Moisture can cause wooden surfaces to swell and deform. Worse still, exposure to excessive moisture can lead to wood decay, caused by decay fungi that ruin the material completely.
