A Humid House is a Sick Home

"It ain't the heat but, the humidity that will kill you.," How many times have we heard that statement or, made it our selves? One has to admit it definitely is a statement that not only holds true during those hazy days of summer but, can also prove extremely detrimental for your home and all of its inhabitants any time of the year.

According to the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, one third to one half of all structures in the nation have damp conditions that may encourage the development of pollutants such as molds and bacteria, which can cause extreme allergic reactions including asthma and spread infectious diseases. There is a misconception that air conditioning alone keeps humidity under control. Not true. These systems are designed to control the temperature, not the humidity.

If you are experiencing trouble sleeping at night because your skin is clammy and the air is so thick you can cut it with a knife, your wood floors feel sticky, your home smells musty, you notice heavy condensation on all of your piping, have visible wet stains on your walls and ceilings ... you possibly have a problem. Humidity does not discriminate. If it is noticeable in one room, then you can be certain it has permeated the entire living quarters and basement as well.

One thing is undeniable, to much moisture will most certainly corrode and decay your most valuable possession ... your home ... and create a health hazard for you and your family as well.
