Podcast explores humidity control in museums and galleries

12 September 2025

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.”

The podcast is available at www.condair.co.uk/podcast as well as on Spotify, SoundCloud and YouTube. Also, available on this webpage is Condair’s back catalogue of podcasts. The series of bite-sized, informative audio episodes cover topics like how to use humidifiers for evaporative cooling in AHUs, how to combat static with humidity, humidity’s impact on health and humidity control in cleanrooms.
