Subject: Humidification levels inside the chamber

I would greatly appreciate some direction here.  Safety standards suggest a humidification level of 50-70% thereabouts inside the chamber.  Are you measuring the humidification level INSIDE the chamber and if so, how?  Any information would help.

Why are chambers not humidified? It is so dry in there and in the room, particularly in winter. Wouldn't that also lessen static and therefore fire risk? I can't find an answer but perhaps it has to do with the engineering of the chamber?

This is not much help to you - but we are not measuring humidity levels inside our chambers or in the chamber room. I inquired once with engineering about measuring humidity levels in the chamber room and was told it would be a logistical nightmare. They were trying to monitor and control humidity levels in a separate department in this facility (non HBO related) and were constantly having time and money consuming issues.
