We know proper indoor ventilation is key to reducing the spread of Covid-19. Now, a study by MIT researchers finds that indoor relative humidity may also influence transmission of the virus. Relative ...

New research finds indoor relative humidity between 40 and 60 percent is associated with relatively lower rates of COVID-19 infections and deaths, while indoor conditions outside this range are ...

The hygrometer is the instrument that measures relative humidity, the humidity is relative to the air temperature. This can confuse people because if you hold the ACTUAL water vapor constant but heat ...

MOLINE, Ill. — Many of us have switched on the furnace for the first time this fall season and that's a trend that will likely continue heading into the remaining weeks of October. With each passing ...

The Covid-19 pandemic has taught us all that indoor air quality matters, and that indoor spaces need clean air in order to protect the health and well-being of the people inside them. One of the key ...

In a recent study published in the Journal of the Royal Society, researchers found that indoor relative humidity (RH) modulates the severity of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) outbreaks, and ...

While you can’t change the humidity levels outdoors, you can take steps to control humidity levels inside your home. This can improve your comfort and health, and can even prevent damage to home ...

It's sort of like the Goldilocks principle -- a room that's either too dry or too humid can influence transmission of COVID-19 and cause more illness or death, Massachusetts Institute of Technology ...

Indoor relative humidity is computed by warming the outside air to a typical indoor temperature of 72(degrees). It is a theoretical calculation and assumes no moisture is added to the air. If the ...

FARGO — Every winter around holiday time, most of us begin to become annoyed by our own dry, cracked and irritated skin. We blame the colder weather this time of year, but the real problem is not ...
