Excessive humidity can be as equally destructive and negatively impactful as too little. Therefore, it is imperative that temperature and humidity levels are efficiently regulated to ensure favorable living and working conditions.
More information 5 Electrostatic Discharge Consequences on Technology
We use technology more and more every day – in fact, more than we may realize. That leaves us open to the risk of electrostatic discharges in low-humidity conditions. In such environments, energy can accumulate on conductive surfaces and arc dangerously to other objects.
More information How Humidity Control Reduces Failure Rates in Equipment
Perhaps you operate a sprawling data center and need to keep your servers in full working order, reliable as ever. Or, maybe you head an in-demand assembly line timed down to the second. Regardless, you deserve equipment that can stay reliable, performing at is peak and in need of as little maintenance as possible.
More information Here’s Why Crops Need Humidity Control
Regardless of whether you’re responsible for crop-growing operations or wonder how the freshest produce reaches your retail operations, there’s no denying the role that proper humidity control plays. Spoiler alert: It’s downright essential!
More information Why Indoor Air Quality in Healthcare Facilities is So Important
We’re currently in the middle of the flu season, and it goes without saying that we need to be extra careful at this time of year when it comes to protecting ourselves and others. During such a time as this, poor indoor air quality in healthcare facilities can make a single instance of illness flash through a building, resulting in a breakout.
More information How Humidity Control Protects Data
Are you responsible for a high-tech data center? Or, have you been encountering electrostatic shock issues at the office? Regardless, keeping your information safe is critical to maintaining peak operational efficiency.
More information Why Does Low Humidity Cause Static Electricity?
Regardless of whether you’ve experienced a nasty shock or stressful computer failure from a short-out, it’s likely that you know how dangerous an electrostatic discharge can be. Detrimental to your safety, comfort and even productivity, it is directly influenced by the air moisture content – otherwise known as relative humidity – within an indoor environment.
More information Why Workplace Air Quality Testing Matters
There are a number of factors that can contribute to the well-being of building occupants put at risk by the very air that they breathe. This is especially true for manufacturing environments where an industrial humidifier with evaporative cooling can serve as a proactive, high-efficiency solution.
More information What Can Low Humidity Do to Your Skin?
If someone suffers from issues with their skin, often they may blame it on genetics. However, low relative humidity is often a cause of many problems when it comes to our skin, which can sometimes lead to infections and chronic disorders.
More information Feeling Dehydrated at Work? Here’s What You Can Do
Whether you work in retail, a factory, or an office environment, from time to time, it’s normal to feel a little worn out. However, if you find yourself feeling regularly dehydrated, it can negatively impact your ability to focus, stay healthy, and maintain a robust immune system.
More information Hot Yoga Temperature: How to Avoid Dry Air
Hot yoga temperature is directly influenced by the relative humidity (RH) in the studio, which plays a critical role when it comes to occupant health and wellness. Using the latest technologies and implementing a few tweaks can make a big difference if you happen to have a space that suffers from dry air.
More information How to Keep Warehouse Employees Cool
In the industrial world, it’s essential that your employees can handle the pressures and responsibilities of such intensive work. However, you could experience stunted productivity and efficiency if your team isn’t kept cool enough.
More information What Baking Bread in Low Humidity Does to Your Products
Whether you operate a small-scale, family-run bakery in town or own multiple production facilities around the world, baking bread is a serious business when it comes to quality control. In addition, it comes with serious production and storage requirements involving proper humidity control and temperature regulation.
More information 4 Ways to Reduce Static Electricity in Print Production
When it comes to folding machines and bindery equipment in printing applications, static electricity can be a pain — literally! Caused by a lack of proper humidity control and therefore drier conditions, it can pose a serious safety risk for employees and impact machine reliability.
More information Legionnaires Disease and Infection Control
Legionnaires disease is a severe form of pneumonia, consisting of lung inflammation brought on by airborne-based infection. The disease is the direct cause of bacterium known as legionella. This bacterium cannot be transferred from person-to-person contact, but rather through inhalation.
More information The Relationship Between Dry Air and Viral Infections
Viral infections such as influenza are directly influenced by the quality of an environment’s air, which includes relative humidity levels and temperatures. If relative humidity levels are low – less than 40% RH – the space will effectively become a breeding ground for bacteria and viral infection potentialities.
More information What is an Evaporative Cooler?
An evaporative cooler is a system that helps to optimise air moisture as well as temperature. Otherwise known as adiabatic humidification, the process of evaporative cooling involves temperature reduction in water prior to dispersal into the air to provide sufficient relative humidity (RH) control.
