Why You Need a Dehumidifier System
Improve air quality, enhance health, save money, and increase comfort with a dehumidifier system. Clean air is easier to breathe and reduces the risk of mold spores and musty odors. Protect your health by removing excess moisture from the air.
Not only is excessive moisture harmful to health, but it can also damage your property. Dampness leads to rot, compromising the integrity of your home or commercial space. Floors can buckle or sag due to humidity. Safeguard your home, electronics, furniture, and textiles with a dehumidifier.
By reducing moisture in the air, your home will feel cooler during summer months. This means you can set the thermostat higher and save on energy bills. Additionally, drier air is easier for HVAC units to process, reducing their runtime.
Upgrade your living environment with a dehumidifier system and enjoy clean, dry air throughout your space.
Understanding When to Use a Dehumidifier
Don't run a dehumidifier all year round. Typically, it's necessary during warm, rainy weather and humid summer months.
If any part of your home has humidity over 50%, consider installing a dehumidifier. Aire Serv professionals can assess air quality and humidity levels in your home.
Here are signs that you should invest in a dehumidifier:
- Mold and mildew growth on surfaces
- Musty smell throughout or in specific areas
- Condensation on windows
- Warping wood floors or furniture
- Rotting wood on window sills or baseboards
- Water stains on ceilings and walls
- Insect infestation indoors
- "Stuffy" or "clammy" feeling in certain rooms
- Increase in allergy symptoms and sickness
Humid Basements and Bathrooms: Troubleshooting and Solutions
Basements are notorious for their humidity and dampness. Common causes include leaking groundwater, improper ventilation of appliances, and poor insulation. To prevent issues such as mold, mildew, and pests, consider investing in a permanent basement dehumidifier.
Bathrooms tend to be the most humid rooms in a house for obvious reasons. Hot baths and steamy showers contribute to high humidity levels. While a whole-home dehumidifier can help reduce overall bathroom humidity, it's essential to properly vent each bathroom with an exhaust fan that expels moist air outside. This will safeguard against mold and mildew formation in both the bathroom and attic.
