Humidity
Humidity refers to the amount of water vapor present in the air. It plays a big role in weather, comfort, and HVAC system performance. Higher humidity means more moisture in the air, while lower humidity means the air is drier. In HVAC systems, controlling humidity is important because it affects both how comfortable a space feels and how efficiently the system operates. For example, reducing indoor humidity in the summer can make the air feel cooler, even at a higher temperature, while maintaining proper humidity in the winter helps prevent overly dry air.
