Humidity Measurement

Humidity measurement is the process of quantifying the humidity in a given environment. It helps assess the indoor air humidity level, a crucial data point for maintaining optimal air quality and preventing issues like condensation, mold formation, and allergies. Hygrometers and other humidity measurement devices are used to monitor and control humidity levels in various spaces.

Excessive humidity can promote the growth of mold and bacteria, while low humidity can cause skin dryness, irritation in the respiratory tract, and reduced comfort. Controlling humidity is therefore essential for creating a healthy environment, especially in spaces like homes, offices, or museums where air quality needs to be optimized.
