ATLANTIC CITY, NJ — Humidity and its control have been receiving greater and greater attention, especially their relationship to good or poor indoor air quality (IAQ). So it’s no wonder that an American Society of Heating, Refrigerating, and Air-Conditioning Engineers (ASHRAE) seminar explored “Practical Aspects of Humidity Measurement.”
In general, a top-notch humidity sensor won’t do building occupants any good if it’s placed badly or isn’t calibrated regularly. And poor humidity control can have serious economic effects on restaurants, retailers, museums, and others that rely on specific ambient conditions for patron and/or product comfort and stability.
