Dehumidification

Proper levels of humidity in your home can have a significant impact on your health and wellbeing. Typically, a normal humidity range is between 40-60%. If you find yourself with a humidity over 60%, your building could be susceptible to increasing levels of mold growth, and family members and guests may experience elevated asthma symptoms or trouble breathing. Levels of humidity that are too low can also affect you, causing things like dry skin, eyes, throat, and lips, itchiness and irritation, allergy-like symptoms, and increased susceptibility to colds and viruses. In addition, maintaining proper levels of humidity ensures that your HVAC system isn’t being overworked, keeping your energy costs from skyrocketing. All of this can be managed with proper dehumidification.

Anyone can go out and purchase a dehumidifier, but being able to achieve the proper balance of humidity takes experience and training. A knowledgeable professional can assess your specific dehumidification needs and restore your environment to the right levels of moisture in the air. Properly placed dehumidifiers draw in the moist air and cool it down, transforming excess vapor back into water. The extra water is then disposed of, ensuring that your home is safe from lingering water damage and moisture. Experts will know exactly what equipment you need for your job and have it handy, saving you time and hassle.
