Air humidity and "comfort diagram"

9 Air humidity and "comfort diagram"
The air humidity of the room is permanently measured by the "R-Tronic" models
"RTF B" and RTFC K" and is displayed in percent in the text line of the display. What
is the purpose of this display?
The ambient air humidity (measurement unit RH = "relative humidity" in %) is an
indicator for the water vapour absorption capacity of the room. Excessive values are
unfavourable as, in the long term, they will lead to moisture damages and the formation
of mildew on walls.
The reference range for a "good" room climate with regard to the air humidity lies
between 30 and 65%. Many people feel values outside this range are "uncomfortable".
If the displayed value exceeds 65%, the room should be ventilated until the reference
range is reached again. Advantage: Ventilation is carried out in an energy saving
manner, as the windows are only opened for a limited period. After ventilation, fresh
air is primarily warmed up. The following diagram shows the correlation between air
humidity, ambient air temperature and the subjective "feeling of comfort".
