High humidity in the bedroom.

Extreme humidity levels in the house, especially in the bedroom, is very unhealthy. You and many others will be surprised at the role the weather plays in your sleep patterns, especially when it comes to humidity. High humidity in the house is accompanied by a warm body temperature, sweating and poor sleep. That is not the only problem though, mould can also develop in the bedroom.

Mold in the bedroom

If you’ve never dealt with mould in the bedroom before, chances are you are wondering how on earth is it possible for these kinds of spots to suddenly appear on the wall of your bedroom. The common cause for this in all cases is due to an excess of humidity in the room. But where does that moisture come from? After all, the chance is not that great that you have a bath or shower cabin in your bedroom. On the other hand, many people sometimes use the sleeping quarters to dry laundry on days when the weather does not allow it.

In addition, do not forget yourself as a water source. Every night a person loses an average of two liters of water through perspiration. Breathing also continues in our sleep. If you sleep in a room with two people, that number is doubled to four liters per night. Over time, this can lead to considerable damp retention in your walls if you do not take appropriate measures.

Effects on health.

Being in a too humid environment for a long time can affect your health. One of the consequences of this are rheumatic complaints. In addition, the fungi in your bedroom are of course far from healthy. These can strike the airways and trigger or intensify allergies. The black mould is the main cause of these health problems. Don’t forget that any kind of fungus can be dangerous. It is therefore important that action must be taken with every variant of fungus.

You may be able to dry the laundry in a different place than the bedroom, but sweating and exhaling in your sleep cannot be stopped. Still, this does not mean that you will be left with damp and mould problems in the bedroom forever. A good solution for this is ventilation. You can also regularly open the bedroom window or install a ventilation grille in the window.

Prevent damp and mould problems.

Windows or vents are not the only means that humid air can better escape from, but also ensures that the air quality in your bedroom improves significantly in general. Better air quality is also better for health. You could also solve the damp problems in your house with the help of an electric dehumidifier, but you should count on a significant increase in your energy bill, because these types of devices are heavy power users. More importantly, this electrical method is similar to patchwork rather than providing a concrete solution for damp and mould problems.
