Good day,

I have a pool in my basement (currently not heated/with pool cover) and use a dehumidifier. It consumes 2 kW/h in 24 hours.

With the current temperatures here in the north, the window in the pool room is often open and the dehumidifier is not on.

Why doesn't the humidity decrease when the windows are open and there is even a draft?

Today, we have an outdoor humidity of 30% and the humidity in the pool room has risen from 60% to 77%.

The temperatures outside and inside are the same.

Can someone help me with this?

Best regards, Stephan

Because more evaporates than can be ventilated out, even with a draft. Only forced ventilation helps here.

Furthermore, the humidity in Hamburg - just like with us - has been around 90% for days. Ventilation doesn't help. In our bathroom, the humidity is also constantly around 65%.
