H3. HUMIDITY LIMITS TO THE COMFORT ZONE

There are no established higher or lower humidity limits for thermal comfort; consequently, this standard does not specify a maximum or minimum humidity level. Nonthermal comfort factors, such as skin drying, irritation of mucus membranes, dryness of the eyes, and static electricity generation, may place limits on the satisfaction with very low humidity environments.
