A proper goodnight’s sleep is essential for optimal physical and mental health. Your environment is a big contributor to the quality of your sleep and your HVAC system is a large element in your environment. Keep on reading to learn Maple Air Heating and Cooling’s tips on getting a better night’s rest.

Humidity
Have you ever woken up in the morning with a dry nose or throat? A reason this often occurs is because of the humidity levels in your home. If the humidity levels are too low in your home, you may experience irritation in the nose and throat. If your humidity levels are too high you may experience trouble breathing. Both of these factors interrupt your sleep; therefore, it is imperative to have the correct humidity levels. Maple Air Heating and Cooling, serving the Greater Toronto Area, recommends that your home should have a humidity level be between 35%-45%. Not only will proper humidity levels better your sleep, but it will also benefit your health.

Temperature
Feeling too hot or too cold can be extremely discomforting and affect sleep quality. Every individual has their own optimal level of air temperature; however, researchers have found that the ideal sleeping temperature is between 15 to 21 degrees Celsius. The temperature of your home during the day will vary in comparison to the temperature when you sleep. It may be tedious to have to constantly change the temperature every night. A perfect solution would be a smart thermostat. Maple Air Heating and Cooling, located in Vaughan, provides smart thermostats from industry leaders such as Ecobee and Carrier. Smart thermostats are beneficial because of the simplicity they offer in creating a comfortable environment for your home. You can set up a specific temperature for each activity in your day such as sleep activity, home activity, and no activity such as being away from your home. Everything can be controlled through your smart device which is a great addition for when you want to control your temperature remotely.

Air Quality
Poor air quality will not only affect your sleep, but also your health. Pollutants in the air can lead to headaches, sinus congestion, coughing, sneezing, and irritation of the eyes, throat, nose, and skin. Overall, all of these factors will affect your quality of sleep, therefore it is recommended to invest in an air cleaner. Maple Air Heating and Cooling, serving the Greater Toronto Area, carries air cleaners from CinQuartz and Carrier. Air cleaners are designed to remove household pollutants, kill airborne pathogens, and re-purify indoor air. Better sleep and better health will come with better air quality.
