Podcast: Humidity control in museums & galleries

Condair has released a new podcast on how to control humidity in museums, galleries and stately homes. In this 10-minute interview Dave Marshall-George, Sales Director at Condair, explains how to successfully manage humidity in the heritage sector whilst minimising energy consumption.

Dave comments, “Humidity control in the heritage sector is an important aspect of preserving exhibits. Both excessively dry or humid conditions, as well as rapid fluctuations in humidity, can cause damage to artefacts, interiors and the building fabric. This short podcast is an ideal overview of the issues any curator or facility manager should be aware of in connection with humidity management. It also offers some tips on energy efficiency as well as product selection.”
