Humidification
Maintaining proper humidity in senior living facilities is essential for resident health, comfort, and overall well-being. Condair humidification solutions ensure indoor relative humidity stays within the optimal 40–60% range, reducing respiratory issues, dry skin, and irritation. Proper humidity control can also help lower infection risks, keeping residents out of the hospital and improving quality of life. Balanced humidity supports staff health as well, reducing absenteeism and ensuring caregivers remain effective and energised. Beyond health benefits, controlled humidity protects furniture, flooring, and electronics from damage caused by overly dry conditions. Condair’s systems are energy-efficient, easy to maintain, and designed specifically for healthcare and senior living environments, delivering consistent, comfortable, and healthy indoor air year-round.
Dehumidiifcation
Excess moisture in senior living facilities can lead to mould, mildew, and bacterial growth, creating an unhealthy environment for residents and staff. Condair dehumidification solutions maintain relative humidity below 60%, minimising microbial risks and improving indoor air quality. Effective humidity control reduces allergens, prevents condensation on walls and windows, and protects furniture, flooring, and medical equipment from moisture damage. By reducing damp conditions, facilities can lower respiratory problems and infections among residents, keeping them healthier and out of the hospital. Staff also benefit from a more comfortable workplace, reducing absenteeism and improving productivity. Condair dehumidifiers are designed for healthcare environments, providing reliable, energy-efficient performance and easy maintenance, ensuring senior living facilities maintain safe, healthy, and comfortable conditions year-round.
Evaporative cooling
Evaporative cooling provides a comfortable and energy-efficient way to manage indoor temperatures in senior living facilities. Condair’s systems cool and humidify the air simultaneously, ensuring residents remain comfortable without the dry, circulated air typical of traditional AC systems. Maintaining optimal humidity and cooler temperatures helps reduce heat stress, prevent dehydration, and lower the risk of hospital visits for residents. Staff also benefit from a more comfortable environment, improving workplace satisfaction and reducing absenteeism. Evaporative cooling systems are sustainable and energy-efficient, lowering facility operating costs while protecting furniture, flooring, and equipment from thermal and moisture stress. Condair designs solutions specifically for healthcare and senior living applications, delivering consistent comfort, healthier air, and enhanced quality of life for residents and staff alike.
Use cases
Humidification boosts the immune system
Controlled humidity in buildings protects the self-cleaning function of the mucous membranes, reduces the risk of infection and strengthens the immune system. Dry air promotes respiratory diseases. Additional humidification ensures healthy indoor air and strengthens the immune system.
Humidity protects against dry eyes
Controlled humidity protects against dry eyes, eye irritation, burning and redness, and prevents strain during intensive computer work.
Healthy skin with optimal humidity
Symptoms and causes of dry skin, and tips for healthy skin through optimal humidity.
Humidity reduces respiratory infections
Optimal humidity reduces the risk of respiratory infections, shortens the lifespan of viruses, inhibits the spread of infectious viruses through the air and protects against colds, flu and COVID-19.
Optimal humidity for restful sleep
Optimal humidity is crucial for restful sleep. Here are helpful tips for a healthy indoor climate and better regeneration.
Humidification solutions for dust and odour reduction

The Condair DL is the next generation of the Condair Dual2—the successful system for adiabatic air humidification. Its hygienic credentials have proven successful in practice and were verified and certified by independent organisations with public responsibility.
Condair ME
The Condair ME provides low energy humidification and evaporative cooling to an air handling unit or duct. A single unit can provide up to 1,080kg/hr of humidification and 740kW of evaporative cooling to an air stream while operating on less than 1kW of electricity.
This system is designed with advanced hygiene technologies, including aerosol-free humidity control and optional UV water treatment.
Condair RS
Innovative scale management removes the separated minerals from the steam cylinder during operation and automatically conveys them into the designated scale collecting tank. Scale deposits are thus continuously removed from the steam cylinder.
