24C inside in summer is fine on a warm evening with the windows
open and a gentle balmy breeze blowing, but in winter I would
find that unbearably stiffling.


Not with a humidity of only 25%

No wonder my house plants need watering all the time . LOL

Indoor 23C 24% humdity
Outdoors -1.5C 95% Humidity

I wouldn't have thought that a humidity that low would be very healthy
over a prolonged period.



Thanks John, I didn't think low humidity would've health problems.
According to various websites, low humidity causes dry skin,
recurrent sinus infections and colds.

I've placed some containers of water on the radiators.

Good idea. Low indoor humidity must be even more of a problem in winter
in places like Canada, Scandinavia and Russia, where it might sometimes
be necessary to heat up the outside air by 40 degrees or more.
