How does humidity travel in a house?

Water vapor can move through walls, ceilings, and floors (the building envelope) of a home in following two ways: Air Infiltration: Moisture can be carried by air that transports it through holes or gaps in the built structure of a home. A great deal of moisture can be carried by such infiltration.

Is 200% humidity possible?

Can you have 200% humidity? Yes, it can and it does happen. It's a condition known as supersaturation. When air is saturated with water vapor, its relative humidity is 100%, but in carefully controlled laboratory experiments the humidity has been raised above 200%.

How bad is 50 humidity?

Humidity above 50% is typically considered too high, while humidity below 30% is usually too low. That means that the ideal range of relative humidity for a home is between 30% and 50%, according to the EPA.

Does 100 humidity mean rain?

The relative humidity measured on the ground (where the sponge is) doesn't reflect moisture levels miles above in the sky. Rain occurs when the rising air can no longer hold the water droplets that have formed clouds high in the sky. ... So 100 percent humidity might not mean rain, but it does mean dew.
