Whole-house dehumidifiers are a great way to keep your home dry and comfortable all year round by eliminating unwanted humidity in your home. Working with the HVAC ventilation system, a whole-house dehumidifier takes in air through the home’s return ducts and pumps dehumidified air into every room via HVAC vents. It improves indoor air quality by purifying the air and reducing allergy flare-ups. A whole-house dehumidifier installed by Ed’s Heating Cooling Plumbing Electric can increase overall comfort and help your cooling process be more efficient.

Benefits of a Whole-House Dehumidifier:

Comfort – When indoor air is humid, the extra moisture sticks to your skin and prevents the body’s natural cooling process from occurring, making you feel hot and uncomfortable.

Reduce Cooling Costs - Excessive moisture in the air causes your AC unit to work harder to cool your home, resulting in wear and tear to your unit and higher utility bills.

Better Indoor Air Quality - High humidity levels can cause common allergens to stay suspended in the air and may result in elevated levels of mold, pollen, and dust mites in your home. Poor indoor air quality can also worsen respiratory problems and health-related issues for allergy sufferers.

Home Protection - Excessively moist air may cause paint to bubble, furniture to warp, and lead to water damage on walls or floors.

Deodorizing – Moist, humid air allows for mold, rot, and fungal growth in your home, which can cause unpleasant odors.
