Good indoor air quality is important to learning, as well as for maintaining proper hygiene conditions. If proper humidity is not maintained within the premises than many health issues can occur. Poor air quality or increased amount of moisture leads to headaches, fatigue, asthma (and other respiratory-related problems), an inability to concentrate, and increased absenteeism among students and faculty.
High humidity is not only uncomfortable, but it creates a breeding ground for mold and bacteria. Healthcare facilities have high air quality standards, which require them to take large amounts of air from outdoors through a ventilation system. Unfortunately, much of this air contains moisture and accounts for about 90% of the humidity in hospitals. That humidity creates an unsafe environment where bacteria can spread and mold can grow. This means that viruses in the hospital could be airborne, or that patients and staff might be breathing in fungi. De-humidifier creates the environment which nullifies the growth of bacteria's.
