What is the ideal humidity level for a home in Saskatoon?
The recommended range is 40–60% relative humidity, indoors and year-round — same in Saskatoon as anywhere else. Below 30% the air is too dry, above 65% mold appears.
Which dehumidifier is best in Saskatoon?

Ventilate 10 min every morning, keep humidity under 60%, insulate cold walls and never dry laundry indoors without a dehumidifier.
