It occurs because the humidity (relative humidity) decreases as the room temperature increases.\n
The amount of water that air can contain (saturated water vapour content) depends on the temperature of the air: the higher the temperature, the more water it can contain.\n
Air conditioner heating without humidifying function raises the temperature of the whole room by directly heating the air, so it does not generate steam. In other words, the moisture in the air does not increase, but only the temperature rises, which lowers the humidity (relative humidity) and causes drying. Also, if the warm air from the air conditioner directly hits your body, it may cause your skin, lips and hair to become dry. 'Drying' is the most common winter problem.
