This product exploits the latest advancements in polymer humidity sensing technology and compact electronic circuitry. It continuously measures up to four measurement parameters using a single intelligent sensor tip, including relative humidity, calculated dew point, temperature, and either absolute or barometric pressure.
Bob and Tim had just finished a routine service call on a house with a gas furnace for the heating system. They were talking to the housewife when she asked: “Our house is very dry in the winter time, and the humidity must be very low. How can we put a system in this house to keep the whole house at a higher humidity level?”
The global temperature transmitter market is expected to reach $3.58 billion by 2022, at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 4.19 percent from 2016 to 2022, while the global humidity transmitter market is expected to reach $1.36 billion by 2022, at a CAGR of 1.84 percent from 2016 to 2022, according to a new report from MarketsandMarkets.
HVAC contractors are constantly seeking accurate, energy-efficient, year-round solutions to their customers’ humidification and dehumidification needs. A number of those solutions were on display at the 2016 AHR Expo in Orlando, Florida.
Manufacturers are addressing this demand head-on by creating and adapting products that are accessible to both contractors and consumers with an eye toward digital displays and functions that can be updated and expanded in the years to come.
HVAC contractors admittedly face a difficult task when it comes to showcasing the benefits and inherent value present in structural moisture management while also ensuring customers know such solutions are more than just empty sales pitches.
As the weather gets colder and we crank up the heat inside our homes to compensate, humidity levels tend to drop significantly, especially in the coldest regions of the country. Homeowners often turn to humidifiers to moisten the air, which, in turn, helps keep their skin from cracking and eyes from itching.
NetworkThermostat, a leading communications-based thermostat manufacturer, announced it has received the WFX 2015 New Products Award for two new IP thermostats, the UP32HE-IP and the UP32HE-WIFI.
Based on ASHRAE’s Humidity Control Design Guide for Commercial and Institutional Buildings, the course includes an in-depth discussion of moisture load calculations and how humidity control can be added to HVAC designs for seven different types of commercial buildings.
