Ask Andrew: Why indoor humidity matters during the cold season

As we switch on the furnace in the weeks ahead, we'll need to keep a close eye on the indoor humidity level. Here's why.

I remember I blasted the heat inside my bedroom on a freezing cold day, while I was sleeping, then my bedroom got so warm & dry. I woke up with being sick. I felt sad, & realized my mistake of keeping my room to dry that caused bacteria to spread around.

I started sneezing out of nowhere in the middle of the night while asleep, also my hair and skin felt so irritating, it was pretty hot outside, I think the humidity got very low with the air condition and the ceiling fan running inside my room, turned the humidity up button on the AC, that got me back to feeling normal again.
