The problem is that neither temperature or humidity (well maybe 100% nearly all the time could be a problem) by themselves will be a problem. It is the change in temperature and/or humidity that cause the problems. First, you should select a temperature that makes you comfortable. Second, choose a temperature near the median in your area to make it easier to stay near the same temperature. The humidity, should follow the same rules. Pick something comfortable that is hopefully near the median in your area. Too dry can cause problems in wood that will make it split and too wet can eventually cause it to swell but you are not likely to choose these because they are also uncomfortable. Just try to keep it consistent. Good Luck - Ed
