It is in the autumn and winter that the problem of moisture most often arises. Heavy rainfall, low temperature, lack of sun and regular airing are just a few of the reasons why this happens. A professional moisture absorber is a considerable expense. Fortunately, you can also use home remedies.
Why does moisture accumulate in the house? Simple steps to prevent this
Moisture can appear from the outside, e.g. through a leaky roof, as well as inside. A family of four produces an average of 15 liters of water a day – bathing, cooking or breathing. At 20-22 degrees, the humidity should be no more than 40-60 percent. What to do when it starts to grow?
- Ventilate and heat all rooms regularly.
- Avoid long, hot baths or showers.
- Use a hood when cooking and put lids on pots.
- Dry laundry in well-ventilated areas.
- Use plants and make a homemade dehumidifier.
