5 Signs You And Your Home Can Benefit From A Dehumidifier

Dehumidifiers work to remove excess water from the air in the environment around them. This moisture can cause a wide range of issues for homeowners if it goes untreated, so if you are experiencing any of these problems, it might be time to invest in an air conditioning systems with a dehumidifier.
  1. Mold: Dark spots on your ceilings, floors, inside cupboards or on your floors and baseboards indicates a mold issue. While professionals can treat the mold, if the excess moisture isn’t removed it will simply grow back. This is a big problem because it can trigger allergies as well as toxic reactions.
  2. Musty smells: Every house smells a little stuffy and musty if it’s been locked up for a long time, but if you notice a smell in general, inside cupboards or after the house has been closed up for a short while, you likely have a moisture problem. If it is not due to a leak, it’s likely due to a lot of moisture in the air, which can be solved with a dehumidifier.
  3. Dampness in your foundation or basement: This can occur seasonally when there is heavy rain or snowmelt, and it’s important that these structural parts of your home are kept dry during this time. Installing a dehumidifier will help prevent cracks, leaking and mold.
  4. Rotting wood: Wooden doors and frames will start decaying if they are exposed to a lot of moisture, even if that moisture is just in the air itself. Repairing and sealing the frames will help, but only a dehumidifier will help remove the source of the problem itself.
  5. You’re struggling to dry clothing: If you hang your washing indoors but are finding that it stays damp for a long time or even develops a musty smell, then excess water in the air is to blame. This is very common during wet seasons or in basements, and can easily be corrected by the installation of a dehumidifier. Not only will it take the excess moisture out of the air itself, it will also remove excess water that evaporates as your laundry dries.

Enhance Your Home Office With A High-Efficiency Air Conditioning System

Home offices are a great asset, but they do need all the essentials if they’re going to become a productive space. High-efficiency air conditioning systems help to create an environment that helps boost productivity, without significantly impacting your energy bill. Here’s how:
  1. Reduced humidity: That sticky, airless feeling you get outdoors in the summer? That’s humidity – and it doesn’t make you want to do anything more than lie down with a cold drink somewhere in the shade. Most air conditioners have a dehumidification setting that takes this excess moisture out of the air without making your space too cold, which helps you stay productive even on the most humid days.
  2. Comfort: The great thing about home offices is that you can set your climate to a temperature and moisture level that suits you, and change it as the season’s progress. You can also set it to kick in before your work day starts and automatically shut off for the evening, keeping your energy bills down.
  3. Silent and efficient: With the right air conditioning system, you should be almost unaware that it’s even there. Modern units are incredibly quiet and unobtrusive, and they use very little electricity to get you great results. With high-efficiency machines, you may also qualify for state rebates in addition to lowering your energy bill.
  4. A better environment: An open window may seem like an effortless solution, but it comes with its own set of issues. From insects and dust flying in, to traffic noise, rain and gusts of wind that blow all your papers off your desk, windows can often cause more issues than they solve. Air conditioners have none of these issues, and with silent, unobtrusive machines on the market with state-of-the-art filters, you’ll have a cleaner, quieter and less chaotic space.
  5. Heat: Many air conditioning systems come with a heat pump feature that allows you to increase the temperature in the colder months, ensuring that your space stays climate controlled regardless of the weather outside.
