Hello everyone!
We have now been living in our new house for 14 months and are very satisfied. There is always a lot to do, both inside and outside. However, we have been concerned about the humidity levels in the house for some time.
We had a prefabricated timber frame house built, KFW 55 standard. We also use an air-to-water heat pump from Tecalor with a ventilation system that includes heat recovery. The humidity has dropped to below 20% during winter. As far as we know, the indoor humidity should be between 40% and 60%, partly for the sake of the mucous membranes and overall comfort. According to the technician, we cannot adjust anything further on the heat pump regarding this.
Is using a room humidifier our only option now, or does anyone have other suggestions?
Best regards,
SaRo

As far as I know, it is the only one where you can adjust the humidity level, with a control range between 30% and 65%. We set it to 50%, and it is maintained within plus or minus 1%. This makes the air very comfortable at all times.
