Dehumidifiers

Combat High Humidity with a Dehumidifier

Using a dehumidifier is your most effective defense against excessive humidity indoors. It works by removing moisture from the air, helping to prevent mold, mildew, and damp, uncomfortable conditions.

Why Choose a Dehumidifier?

Dehumidifiers lower the humidity levels in your home, creating a more comfortable and healthier environment.

• Ideal Humidity Level: Keep indoor humidity between 50% and 55%. Anything above 60% is considered high and can lead to problems.

Benefits of Using a Dehumidifier

• Prevents Mold and Mildew: Maintaining lower humidity levels stops mold spores from thriving and reproducing in warm, moist spaces.

• Reduces Allergies: Less moisture means fewer dust mites, mold spores, and bacteria, which can worsen allergy symptoms.

• Controls Pests: Pests like cockroaches, spiders, and silverfish prefer damp environments—keeping your space dry helps deter them.

• Supports Your AC: A dehumidifier reduces overall moisture, reducing your air conditioner’s workload and increasing efficiency.

• Protects Your Home: Excess moisture can cause structural damage, especially in crawl spaces and basements, leading to rotting beams and warped flooring.

Best Areas for a Dehumidifier

Dehumidifiers are versatile and ideal for various spaces around your home, including:

• Basements

• Crawl spaces

• Kitchens, bathrooms, and laundry rooms

• Bedrooms

• Garages and workshops

• Spas or indoor pool areas.
