Increase your general well-being with a hygrometer from medisana
A healthy living climate is a prerequisite for feeling comfortable within your own four walls. In addition to the room temperature, humidity also plays a major role. Compared to temperature, however, people find it very difficult to sense humidity. And this is precisely why it is worth buying a medisana hygrometer online.
Info: A hygrometer (from ancient Greek: ὑγρός hygrós for ‘moist’ and μέτρον métron for ‘measure’) is a measuring instrument for determining humidity. Our devices measure this continuously and can be combined with a humidifier, for example, to achieve the optimum target value.
How you can benefit from a hygrometer
Digital humidity meters are equipped with a sensor that works according to Ohm's law: Depending on the humidity, more or less voltage flows through a certain resistance. This measuring method ensures the highest possible measuring accuracy. In addition, our devices have the advantage over analogue hygrometers that they are easier to read thanks to their display. Readjustment is not normally necessary.
Our humidity meters detect changes in humidity extremely quickly and display not only this, but also the room temperature and the time. A fast response time is all the more important if you are only buying a hygrometer and want to regularly determine the humidity in different rooms.
A hygrometer is good for you and your home
Neither too low nor too high humidity is healthy for you and your home. While dry air irritates your mucous membranes and eyes and makes your skin brittle, which can lead to health problems, constantly (too) high humidity leads to mould on the walls. This can particularly be the case in the bathroom, kitchen and other rooms where a lot of water evaporates. If the room humidity cannot escape sufficiently to the outside, stains and spores form on the walls. This not only looks unattractive, but can also pose a health hazard!
So that you don't have to worry about the consequences described above, we recommend that you place the hygrometer in a clearly visible position in the room and keep an eye on it at all times. The optimum room humidity is between 40 and 60 per cent.
We recommend checking the humidity here
Ideally, you should buy several hygrometers and place one in each room. This will increase your well-being within your own four walls and prevent mould infestation in all rooms. There is a particular risk of mould developing in:
- rooms where you dry your washed laundry (this releases a particularly large amount of moisture into the air)
- the kitchen (mainly due to the water vapour from cooking)
- your bathroom (due to the water vapour from showering)
- little-used cellar rooms (infrequent ventilation and heating encourage mould growth)
A hygrometer also makes sense in your living rooms for the reasons mentioned above. Optimum humidity will make you feel more alert, more balanced and more comfortable all round. It's best to buy a hygrometer online now and keep control of the humidity in all rooms!
