HumidityHighWarning #

Meaning #

The humidity in a room has exceeded 65% for the past 6 hours. This is a warning threshold indicating that humidity levels are becoming uncomfortable and may pose risks to electronics or equipment.

Impact #

Sustained high humidity can cause condensation on electronic equipment, promote mold growth, and create uncomfortable living conditions. Prolonged exposure above 65% can damage sensitive hardware.

Diagnosis #

Check the current humidity readings from all Shelly H&T sensors:

shellyht_humidity_percent

Identify which specific rooms or sensors are affected:

kubectl get pods -n iot -l app.kubernetes.io/name=shelly-ht-monitor -o yaml

Review the humidity trend over the past 24 hours to determine if this is a gradual increase or sudden spike.

Mitigation #

Open windows in the affected rooms to improve ventilation and reduce humidity levels.

If the issue persists, consider using a dehumidifier in the affected areas. Check for water leaks or other sources of moisture that may be contributing to elevated humidity.
