I wanted to increase humidity daytime in summer, but I can't find suitable solutions.

 

It's server room with forced air cooling.

 

Main fans are W6D630GA0101, one in and another out. Unfortunately only in finnish as far as I can find.

 

Idea is add water after incoming air filtering.

 

Maybe we could spray water to that filter and measure humidity right after filter and modulate water pressure?

 

I added last month humidity and temperature graph.

Add an industrial humidifier/dehumidifier in the HVAC system if it's an extremely large room or high air volume but as asked why would you want extra moisture the less the better is it not?

If you add cool water to warm air it cools it.

 

Was it google or facebook who uses same cooling method.

I think it was google.

 

As long as there is no condensing one should be safe.

 

Air-conditioning is one solution, but it'll cost a lot.
