Has the Drought Dried Out Your Home?

With the lack of rain this season, news of a drought didn’t seem like a surprise to many. What is more surprising, is that this drought is one of the worst California has seen in over a century! All of the dry air, dry land and dried out plant life, has ushered in a nasty wildfire season. Just in the past two weeks, wildfires have claimed over 14 square miles of land. This is thought to only be exacerbated by the extreme drought conditions throughout the Southern California area. Many areas of San Diego county are considered to be listed in the “extreme” drought category.

How Dry Air Can Affect You

These extreme drought conditions have left many of us with dry air. Dry air in your home can make you feel dried out, irritate allergies and respiratory illness and can even cause damage to humidity sensitive items like wood. Lacking proper humidity in your home can be a pain. Setting up a humidifier to treat the air in your home can be an annoyance to take care of. Thankfully, there are air conditioning systems that can help you with that problem.

Many air conditioning companies have looked to solve this problem with their air conditioning systems. Newer air conditioning systems can be set up to humidify or dehumidify your home.
