Why Use a Humidifier?
In the wild, tropical plants bask in 80-100% relative humidity. Inside our homes, central
heating and air conditioning strip moisture from the air, causing our plants to suffer from
crispy leaf edges, stunted growth, and stuck leaves.
A humidifier is not just a luxury for rare plants; it is a necessity. It prevents transpiration
stress, allowing the plant to open its stomata to breathe and photosynthesize efficiently without losing all its internal moisture.
Nordic Hydro´s Humidifier Solutions
Whether you have a single grow tent or a dedicated lung room, Nordic Hydro offers top-tier
humidification equipment to dial in your environment. They stock smart ultrasonic cool mist
humidifiers that integrate seamlessly with environmental controllers.
These units feature large tanks to minimize refilling, targeted hosing to direct the mist
exactly where your plants need it, and precise sensors to automatically shut off when your
ideal humidity target is reached.
While we often focus on adding moisture to our grow spaces, too much humidity can be just as disastrous as too little. When relative humidity stays above 85% with poor airflow, your plants are at a severe risk of fungal infections, powdery mildew, and devastating root rot. Furthermore, during the cooler night cycles, a drop in temperature causes a spike in
humidity, leading to condensation on the leaves—a breeding ground for disease.
A dehumidifier acts as an insurance policy for your crop, pulling excess water from the air to maintain the perfect Vapor Pressure Deficit (VPD).
Nordic Hydro´s Dehumidification Gear
Nordic Hydro provides robust dehumidification solutions designed for continuous, heavy-
duty use in grow rooms. Rather than relying on small household units that fill up in an hour, their professional-grade dehumidifiers can be plumbed for continuous drainage. Paired with intelligent climate controllers, these units kick on automatically the moment your humidity breaches the safe zone, ensuring your indoor jungle stays lush, not swampy.
