Why you need dehumidifier?

Have you heard the phrase, it's not so much the heat but the humidity that makes you uncomfortable? This phrase describes the hot, muggy environment that results when there is excess humidity in your space. Although most central air conditioning systems remove some excess moisture from your indoor environment, it isn't enough for some places like basements.

You may have a humidity problem if you notice: 

• Condensation on windows
• Wet stains on walls and ceilings 
• Mold
• Musty scents
• Uneven floor boards

If these problems are ignored, structural damage to your home and its contents, allergic reactions, respiratory problems, and other health issues may arise.

A dehumidifier can help you remedy the moisture problem in your home. These appliances are designed to pull damp, sticky air into the unit, rapidly cool it and condense the moisture, and redistribute the drier, dehumidified air back into your environment using a fan. 

Additionally, when you supplement your air conditioner with a dehumidifier, you will achieve the best balance of cool and dry air, which will help your indoors remain healthy and cool.
