You seem to be somewhere that has a real winter. I’m in a region of New Zealand where we have hot and humid summers and cool and humid winters.
Our temperature range is only about 5-30 degrees C, which is small compared to many places.
Yeah, I have a humidifier that matches the square feet of the house running and it can't keep humidity over 20% when it gets colder. Need to work on air leaks I guess.
As in, boiling the water? Wasn’t it very humid?
