If the humidity inside your house is above 60%, you’ll probably notice that you feel hot and sticky, and that the air smells stale. Most experts recommend keeping the humidity indoors to below 50% for maximum comfort, although anything between 30-50% is considered acceptable. Too dry, and you may notice that your throat and skin feel dry. Prolonged dry conditions could even cause damage to your furniture and wall coverings.
Whole-house dehumidifiers connect to the central air HVAC ducts in your home, and can extract moisture from the air in every room. They’re usually equipped with a condenser and a pump to collect the water and channel it away from your home. In some cases, the system may use gravity drainage, removing the need for a pump.
These solutions are more convenient than portable dehumidifiers, which have a small reservoir to hold the water extracted from the air. While a freestanding dehumidifier is useful as a temporary solution, the reservoir requires emptying frequently, which can be a source of frustration.
Dehumidifiers can help prolong the life of your air conditioning unit, improve your home’s comfort, and reduce the risk of mold or pests on the property. For best results, it’s important to choose a dehumidifier that’s the correct size for your property. Choose one that’s over or under-powered, and you could waste energy while not achieving the desired level of humidity.
Our skilled contractors can help you find the most suitable dehumidifier for your property based on the size, typical humidity level and your budget. They’ll explain the options to you and work with you to find the most suitable location to fit the unit.
