Warum Luftfeuchtigkeit im Sommer genauso wichtig ist wie im Winter – besonders im Büro oder Homeoffice 🧑‍💻🌞

Why humidity is just as important in summer as it is in winter – especially in the office or home office 🧑‍💻🌞

When we think of dry air, winter immediately comes to mind: heated air, a scratchy throat, dry skin. But even in summer , humidity can drop dramatically—especially in air-conditioned rooms. And this has an impact on our health , concentration , and even our productivity .

❄️ Air conditioning: pleasantly cool, but often too dry

Air conditioning systems have become indispensable in modern offices and home offices. They maintain comfortable temperatures, filter the air, and simultaneously remove moisture. The result: Relative humidity often drops below 40% 📉, although experts recommend a range of 40–60% for optimal well-being.

😣 Dry air in summer? These are the symptoms:

  • 👀 Dry or irritated eyes
  • 🧴 Feeling of tension on the skin
  • 🤧 Tickly cough or a scratchy throat
  • 💤 Fatigue and difficulty concentrating
  • 🤒 Increased susceptibility to infections as the mucous membranes dry out

This can become a real problem, especially in the office or home office , where we have to work concentratedly for several hours at a time.

🌿 The solution: consciously regulate humidity

A hygrometer can tell you how dry the air really is—and the results are often surprising. The good news: There are simple ways to counteract this:

  • 💧 Use a humidifier: Devices like the Humidipot ensure a continuous and natural increase in humidity – without any electricity.

  • 🪴 Place plants: Green plants such as the indoor lime tree or the ficus tree in particular contribute to humidifying the air.

  • 🌬️ Ventilate regularly: Fresh air, especially in the morning and evening, can help balance the indoor climate.

✅ Conclusion: Do not underestimate humidity in summer

Even though we tend to think of heat in summer rather than dry air , the right humidity is crucial for well-being and performance , especially in the office or home office. With small measures, the indoor climate can be specifically improved.
