[QUOTE="akmtnhnt, post: 3016738, member: 120824"] Any heating of air with a set volume of water in it will reduce the humidity. % humidity is relative. It's relative to the air temperature. For example, 100% humidity at 0F is a lot less water then 40% humidity at 100F. If you have 50% humidity while the temp is 25F, and you raise the temperature to 72F without adding any water to the air, the humidity is now 8.5%. The amount of water the air can hold is dependent on the temperature of the air. This is why most people have a humidifier on their hvac or run a consumer appliance grade one 24/7. It doesn't really matter how you heat the air, if you're heating the air and not increasing the amount of water in the air, you're reducing the relative humidity. [/QUOTE]
