Your loved ones are most likely to suffer from the consequences of dry air in semi-arid climates and during the cold of winter when the furnace’s heat eradicates most of the humidity. The latter, especially impacts most Quad Cities Area households.
Dry air may…
- Cause sore throats and dry skin which may be confused with COVID-19.
- Trigger itchy eyes, increasing the risk of catching infections by rubbing the eyes.
- Make you more susceptible to catching cold and flu viruses according to the Sinai School of Medicine.
- Damage walls, woodwork and hardwood floors.
- Increase your energy bill, because dry air makes you feel colder.
