The consequences of dry air



 Discomfort, tiredness, sickness.
 Breathing in dry air makes the uptake of oxygen and its subsequent transfer to the blood system more difficult. Fatigue, tiredness and reduced concentration levels are symptoms of a reduced oxygen supply.

Damage to wooden objects.
 Furniture and other wooden objects have a dull surface in dry room air. They dry out and eventually cracks will appear.


Dry skin.
 Low relative humidity results in greater loss of moisture from the skin's outer layers. It becomes dry, rough and flaky, and has a tendency to become inflamed.		 Out of tune musical instruments.
 Low moisture content in room air will cause musical instruments to go out of tune.
