Content: Even a suspicion that someone might be suffering from heatstroke requires immediate medical aid. Heatstroke can kill. There are a number of ways to avoid overheating. First, you need to be aware of not only the temperature, but of the heat index, too. Be sure to drink plenty of water and to take it easy, slow down and cool off if you notice any signs of fatigue, headache or an increased pulse. Keeping your indoor air at a comfortable and healthy humidity level is also very important—you can do this by running a dehumidifier in your home. While an air conditioner may remove some of the moisture from the air inside of your home, a dehumidifier is built specifically for that purpose. Often times a dehumidifier enables you to control both the humidity and the temperature inside of your home. The drier the air, the quicker you will cool down and the cooler your body will feel. In addition to creating a more comfortable living environment, a dehumidifier also works to reduce allergens that often thrive in warmer, more humid conditions.
