During winter, heated indoor air often becomes too dry without us noticing. Low humidity affects comfort, health, and overall well-being. Here are five clear signs your home air is too dry—and what helps.

1. Dry Skin, Chapped Lips, Irritated Eyes
Why: Heated winter air lacks moisture, causing skin and eyes to dry out quickly.
Fix: Maintain indoor humidity around 40–50% to help the body retain natural moisture.

2. Dry, Heavy Air That Feels Hard to Breathe
Why: Very dry air irritates the airways and dries out the nose and throat. This makes breathing feel uncomfortable, especially in heated rooms or during physical activity and sleep.
Fix: Proper humidity keeps the airways hydrated, making breathing feel easier, smoother, and more natural.

3. Poor Sleep or Dry Throat in the Morning
Why: Dry air irritates airways during sleep, often leading to mouth breathing and restless nights.
Fix: Balanced humidity supports healthy breathing and better sleep quality.

4. Frequent Coughing or Sore Throat
Why: Low humidity dries out protective membranes in the nose and throat, reducing natural defense against irritation.
Fix: Humidified air helps keep airways comfortable and resilient during winter.

5. Warm but Uncomfortable Indoor Air
Why: Heating raises temperature but lowers humidity, reducing overall comfort.
Fix: Balanced humidity makes indoor air feel warmer, fresher, and more pleasant.
