How a Dehumidifier Can Benefit Your House

humidity-on-window

Humidity is a big part of our summer seasons, and anyone who’s had to go through a humid day knows how much worse it makes the heat feel. High humidity can cause several problems for your household, both the people in it and the house itself, and we recommend scheduling an installation of a whole-house dehumidifier in Perry, GA to combat this problem. You’ll enjoy more benefits than just better comfort, as we’ll explain below.

Whole-House vs. Portable Dehumidifier

You have the option to purchase portable dehumidifiers to help control humidity or to schedule a professional installation of a whole-house dehumidifier. Portable dehumidifiers have limited use, as they need to be either moved from room to room or have multiple units, which is costly and inconvenient.

On the other hand, a whole-house dehumidifier will affect the entire house and comes with better precision humidity control so the air won’t dry out rooms much. We strongly recommend going with the whole-house option, which our technicians will integrate into your central HVAC system.

Benefits of Balanced Humidity

With the precision of a whole-house dehumidifier, you can find the right humidity balance in your house. (You don’t want the air to be too dry!) Balanced humidity will benefit you in several major ways:

Improved Hot-Weather Comfort

Humidity plays a significant role in how hot temperatures feel. High humidity levels will make warm temperatures feel hotter because the moisture in the air traps more heat in the body. By maintaining balanced humidity, a dehumidifier makes your home feel cooler during hot weather, improving your comfort without needing to adjust the thermostat.

Reduce AC Use to Save Money

When your home feels cooler, you won’t need to rely on the air conditioning as much, leading to significant energy savings during the summer. A whole-house dehumidifier works in tandem with your AC unit, allowing for higher thermostat settings without compromising on comfort.

Prevent Mold and Mildew Growth

Mold and mildew thrive in moist environments. Balanced humidity, thanks to a whole-house dehumidifier, significantly reduces the risk of mold and mildew growth, which not only looks better, it makes for healthier indoor air quality free from mold spores (a major allergen).

Stop Water Damage to Your Home

Excess moisture can harm your home’s foundation, walls, and overall structure. Dehumidifiers help prevent the water damage caused by condensation and dampness, helping your home to last for longer.
