Lebanon’s summers are known for their blazing heat, sticky humidity, and sudden climate shifts—especially along the coast. Whether you're living in Beirut or the mountains, maintaining the ideal temperature and humidity indoors during summer isn’t just about comfort—it’s essential for your health, your home, and your food. That’s where the OTIV smart hygrometer comes in.
Let’s break down the ideal summer climate indoors, how Lebanese weather affects it, and why every home in Lebanon can benefit from a WiFi-enabled temperature and humidity monitor.
🌡️ What Is the Ideal Indoor Temperature in Lebanese Summers?
Experts recommend an indoor temperature range of 23°C to 26°C (73°F to 79°F) for summer comfort. In Lebanon, where outdoor temperatures easily reach 33°C+ (91°F), keeping your home within this range prevents:
-
Overuse of air conditioning (and high electricity bills)
-
Heat-related fatigue
-
Poor sleep quality
🧠 Why It Matters:
-
Too hot? Your body overworks to cool down.
-
Too cold? You risk respiratory issues and mold buildup from condensation.
💧 What Is the Ideal Indoor Humidity in Summer?
For optimal health and home preservation, indoor humidity should stay between 40% and 60%.
In Lebanon, summer humidity often spikes over 75%, especially in coastal areas like Jounieh or Saida. This creates serious issues:
🔴 High Humidity Can Cause:
-
Mold growth on walls and furniture
-
Dust mite buildup and allergies
-
Spoiled food in pantries
-
Dehydration due to constant sweating
🔵 Low Humidity (less common in summer) Can Cause:
-
Dry skin and irritated eyes
-
Cracking wood or musical instruments
-
Respiratory discomfort
