My daughter's new house has a 4 ft. wide wall in the garage, and the

house. She does run a humidifier on furnace at 25%.

To properly answer your question we need to know more facts. How "NEW"
is the house? What is the house constructed of (vinyl siding, stucco,
Block, et.)? What area of the country is the house located? And maybe
a few more facts.

Also, there could be more than just one thing causing the problem.

Sounds like missing insulation in those areas.

I'd also verify the humdidity is really 25% by measuring it with a
couple different devices. If the humidifier is just set to 25%, the
actual humditity could be higher.
