The Importance of Balanced Humidity
On the hottest days of the year, balanced humidity—that is, relative humidity between 30%–50%—can make the air feel as much as 8–10°F cooler. This translates to a number of benefits, including costing you less to run your air conditioner since it won’t have to run for as long or as hard. Humidity control also helps prevent water damage to the materials of your home.
A whole-house dehumidifier is an appliance that can be integrated into your HVAC system in combination with your air conditioner. Your forced-air cooling system does have some dehumidifying properties, since the refrigerant coil draws moisture form the air at the same it draws heat. But this is not your cooling system’s intended purpose. A whole-house dehumidifier removes much more heat and moisture from the air in your HVAC system and your home. Plus, it does not interfere with the operation of your air conditioner.
Expert Dehumidifier and Humidifier Installation
You’re probably pretty well convinced of the benefits of dehumidification, but what about a humidifier? True, low humidity isn’t something you hear about a lot in our area, however, it is certainly something that can happen during the cooler parts of the year, however brief they may be.
Air that is too dry—that is, air that is less than 30% relative humidity—weakens your immune system and makes you more susceptible to getting sick. Also, dry air leads to cracking wood and peeling paint, as well as skin and throat irritation. If this concerns you or if you’re wondering what your humidity risks are, do be sure to contact us for advice on the best humidifier for your home.
Do You Need Dehumidifier Repair?
The best dehumidifier for your home will always be the one that was professionally installed by a team of experienced service technicians. But remember, no matter how professional the installation, it is a system just like any other, that has the ability to wear down over years of use and require repairs at some point.
