FAQs | the three most frequently asked questions

Which devices are suitable for effectively regulating humidity in living spaces?

Various devices are suitable for regulating humidity in living spaces, depending on the specific needs and room conditions:

humidifier

Humidifiers are ideal for increasing humidity when it's too low. The Stylies LEPUS humidifier, for example, allows you to set the desired humidity level and releases steam to increase it.

Dehumidifier

For rooms with excessive humidity, dehumidifiers are the best choice. There are several types:

  1. Condensation dehumidifiers: Efficient for large rooms and humid environments, such as our Jupiter, Mercure, Matar and Regulus models.
  2. Granular dehumidifiers: Quiet and low-maintenance, ideal for smaller rooms or closets. They offer limited dehumidification performance, which is why we don't carry this technology in our product range.
  3. Peltier dehumidifiers: Energy-efficient and very quiet, suitable for small spaces like bathrooms or offices. They offer limited dehumidification performance, which is why we don't offer this technology in our product range.

Hygrometer and thermo-hygrometer

These devices measure humidity and are essential for manually monitoring indoor climate. Digital versions allow for easy and accurate readings.

Weather stations

As an all-in-one solution, weather stations measure not only humidity but also other meteorological variables and are suitable for comprehensive climate monitoring.

When selecting the appropriate device, factors such as room size, typical humidity levels, and specific requirements (e.g., noise levels) should be considered. For optimal results, a combination of different devices and methods is often recommended.

How can humidity in basements be optimally adjusted and controlled?

To optimally regulate the humidity in the basement, the following measures should be taken:

Optimal humidity

The ideal relative humidity in a basement is between 50% and 60%, with a maximum of 65%. To monitor this, we recommend using a hygrometer.

Ventilation methods

  1. Ventilation :
  2. Automatic ventilation :
    A decentralized ventilation system specifically removes moist air and regulates the humidity as needed.

Additional measures

  • Use a dehumidifier : If the humidity is constantly high above 65%, electric dehumidifiers can help.
  • Reduce sources of moisture : Avoid drying laundry in the basement.
  • Sealing : Check and seal windows and entrances to prevent moisture ingress.
  • Temperature control : Maintain a constant temperature, as colder air can absorb less moisture.

Seasonal adjustments

  • Summer : Ventilate preferably at night or in the early morning hours to avoid condensation.
  • Winter : Ventilate during the day when it is colder outside than in the basement.

By combining these methods and regular monitoring with a hygrometer, you can effectively regulate the humidity in your basement and prevent mold growth

How does humidity affect sleep quality and what range is considered optimal?

Humidity has a significant impact on sleep quality, as it affects the indoor climate and respiratory health. The optimal humidity level in the bedroom is between 40% and 60%. Here are the key factors:

Effects of low humidity

  • Dry mucous membranes : Air that is too dry can dry out the nasal and oral mucous membranes, leading to sore throats, coughs, and increased susceptibility to infections.
  • Respiratory problems : Dry air irritates the respiratory tract and can aggravate asthma or allergic reactions.
  • Poor sleep : The discomfort caused by dry air (e.g. irritated mucous membranes) can make it difficult to fall asleep and interrupt sleep.

Effects of excessive humidity

  • Heat build-up : High humidity makes it difficult for the body to regulate its temperature, which leads to an uncomfortable sleeping environment.
  • Mold growth : Too much moisture promotes mold growth, which can trigger allergies and respiratory diseases.
  • Proliferation of allergens : Mites and bacteria thrive in high humidity, which is particularly problematic for allergy sufferers.

Benefits of optimal humidity

  • Healthy mucous membranes : Balanced moisture protects the mucous membranes and makes breathing easier.
  • Pleasant sleeping environment : Neither heat build-up nor dry air disturb the sleep cycle, thus promoting restful sleep.
  • Protection against health problems : Optimal levels reduce the risk of infections, allergies and mold growth.

Tips for regulating humidity

  1. Ventilation : Regular ventilation helps to remove excess moisture.
  2. Humidifiers or dehumidifiers : These devices help maintain the desired humidity level.
  3. Houseplants : Plants like aloe vera can help regulate humidity easily.
  4. Pay attention to the room temperature : The ideal temperature in the bedroom is 16-18 °C for adults and up to 20 °C for children.

By following these recommendations, you can create a healthy indoor climate that promotes restful sleep.
