What is the recommended range of humidity level according to the ASHRAE?




a. 10% to 20%
b. 30% to 40%
c. 40% to 55%
d. 55% to 65%



Answer: C

The American Society of Heating, Refrigerating and Air-Conditioning Engineers (ASHRAE) recommends optimal humidity levels in the 40% to 55% range, making answers A, B, and D incorrect. Very low levels of humidity can promote the buildup of electrostatic charges that can harm sensitive electronic components. Very high levels of humidity can promote condensation on chilled surfaces and introduce liquid into operating equipment.
