Humidity meters are electronic devices that measure the amount
of moisture in the air. Humidity meters have a number of
different uses, as air quality can have different effects on its
surroundings. Measuring and regulating moisture levels using
humidity meters is important for health and safety in the home,
hospitals, manufacturing as well as construction. Depending on
the environment, different humidity meters are used in order to
provide the most accurate readings. Humidity is essentially the
amount of water vapour in the air. We produce moisture when we
breathe and perspire and our indoor plants contribute also.
Moisture can enter our home through household activities such as
cooking, showering, bathing and doing laundry. If there is too
much humidity it can cause problems such as a mouldy bathroom,
musty smells, allergic reactions and damage to household
contents. Alternatively, if there is too little humidity it can
cause breathing problems and problems with electronic equipment.
