MICHIGAN DEHUMIDIFIER INSTALLATION

If you notice condensation on windows, musty odors, or mold growth in your home, these are signs that you may benefit from a dehumidifier.

While some portable dehumidifiers can be easily installed, whole-house dehumidifiers are best installed by a professional to ensure proper sizing and integration with your HVAC system.

Whole-house dehumidifiers are devices that are connected to an HVAC system, as opposed to portable dehumidifiers that you can purchase that plug into the wall and only work in one room at a time. Once installed, whole-house dehumidifiers work by drawing in warm, moist air through your ductwork and cooling it. This process causes the moisture in the air to condense into water droplets, which are then expelled directly down a drain or collected in a condensation pan. The cooled air is then released back into your room, balancing your indoor humidity level and helping you feel cooler.

There are many great benefits to installing a whole-home dehumidifier in your Michigan home. Aside from the obvious goal of lowering the moisture content in your air so that you’re more comfortable, dehumidifiers can also take some of the burden off of your air conditioner, resulting in less energy consumption, less wear and tear on your AC, and lower utility bills. Dehumidifiers can also protect the items in your home from the damaging effects of too much moisture. When indoor humidity levels are too high, they can actually cause damage to wooden furniture and floors, paper items, musical instruments, and other personal property. When humidity levels are high enough, they can even contribute to potentially dangerous mold and mildew growth that can produce unpleasant odors, symptoms of illness, and interior damage. Plus, if you or someone else in your household is an allergy sufferer, balanced indoor humidity levels can even keep symptom-triggering dust mite populations at bay.
