Low humidity room climate (25%)

Hello dear community,

a few months ago we moved into a wooden house (prefabricated house) built new in 2017 with a comfort climate heating system.
After I developed dry skin, my husband bought a humidity meter.
These show an average humidity of about 25%.
We have already tried several things: humidifiers, ventilation, hanging laundry, leaving doors open when showering/bathing, setting up plants...

Unfortunately not really successful. I don’t want to constantly hang laundry in the living areas and I’m not completely comfortable with the humidifiers.

Is this normal in wooden houses?
Does anyone have experience with this?

I am thankful for every post!

Thank you and best regards
Minuk

Yes, Wohlfühlklimaheizung was only named that way so that they could sell the junk at all. My condolences, but it has nothing to do with a wooden house. Setting up many humidifiers should help a bit.

You do not have a wooden house, you have a timber frame construction in prefabricated form – by the way with a 5-year warranty according to the Building Code.

Comfort climate heating: is that a Schwörerhaus?

At the moment, the air outside is also extremely dry. Through ventilation (manually or via system), this air naturally also comes into the house. That's completely normal. With a controlled residential ventilation system, the effect is even intensified, since you have a constant air exchange.

We also had the problem in winter. Cold air from outside becomes warm, extremely dry air indoors. I can recommend the Venta air washer. Not exactly cheap, but it helped very well. And with this device, you supposedly don’t have to have any hygiene concerns.

with a comfort climate heating.

Hehe I can only agree with Lumpi there. The name is just marketing here and nothing more. Humidifiers, air washers, laundry - all that helps.
