How to Increase Your Rochester Home's Humidity

November 23, 2015

Your home's humidity plays a major role in your family's comfort. As the weather changes, humidity levels vary as well.

Dry air during winter months in Rochester can make your throat and nose feel coarse. It can also put you at a higher risk for colds and other illnesses.

For ideal comfort, your home’s humidity levels should be between 35 and 50 percent.

Does your home’s air feel too dry when it’s cold or too moist when it’s hot? A whole-home humidifier from Strogen's Service Experts can help. We can help you discover the best option for your household during a free home comfort assessment.
