The happy zone: I try to target 35-45% humidity for anyone in general, and this is important for those with asthma or inhalant allergies. Dust mites, a common allergen, will thrive in humidity above 50% while mold and mildew form above 70%. When you go down around 10-20% the dry air can irritate your airways and cause sore throats and nose bleeds.
