Humidity in the kitchen is a problem many homeowners need to deal with. Here are a few things Renewal by Andersen® of New Jersey-New York Metro, the leading windows expert in the area, suggests.
Improve Ventilation
Ventilation is key to tackle humidity in your kitchen. You can start simply by decluttering and organizing your kitchen. Getting rid of things you don’t need will clear up some space and will allow your kitchen to breathe a bit better. Install fans and exhaust units to help improve air circulation. Keep your kitchen clean and dry at all times. Leaving sections damp for extended periods can encourage mold growth that, obviously, no homeowner would ever want.
Get Better Windows
Good indoor air quality is necessary for every home, particularly, in a high-traffic area like your kitchen might be. You can’t have food prepared or meals served where the air doesn’t circulate well, to begin with. If you’re not sure what type of windows to use, Renewal by Andersen of New Jersey-New York Metro offers great window replacement options that can help you avoid such a situation.
Consider Patio Doors
If your kitchen is adjacent to your patio, consider having sliding patio doors or french doors installed. These types of doors can help increase the amount of natural light you can let into your kitchen as well as help improve ventilation and keep the humidity level low. An airier and brighter kitchen is always more comfortable to work in and easier to enjoy.
