Abstract (en)

According to an example aspect of the present invention, there is provided a method for controlling humidity of a space (20) comprising: measuring humidity and temperature of the space (20), ventilating the space (20) with air through an inlet (4) and an outlet (3). In accordance with the invention the humidity and temperature of the space (20) is measured in a first measurement at the outlet (3) during ventilation, the humidity and temperature outside the space (20) is measured in a first measurement during the ventilation, temporarily ending the ventilation, the humidity and temperature of the space (20) is measured in a second measurement at the outlet (3) during the temporarily ended ventilation, the humidity and temperature outside the space (20) is measured in a second measurement during the temporarily ended ventilation, the first and the second measurements are alternated periodically, and the first and second measurements are compared in order to determine the need for ventilation and possible water leaks in the space (20).
