Summers months all across America are filled with heat and record high amounts of humidity, making it impossible to not feel sticky. Your air conditioner can cool you down when you are inside but what is protecting your family from humidity? Humidity levels can make the air in your home feel hotter than the temperature on your thermostat.
While Air conditioning can help to lower humidity levels, it comes with a cost. A very cold evaporator coil in the inside portion of your AC system collects water vapor from the air as warm, humid air blows over it. Water condenses on the cold coil, and then it drips down below to drainage system. This can reduce humidity levels in the air and which makes you feel comfortable. The only issue with this is that it can make you feel a little too cool as your system is working harder to fight the amount of humidity in your home. This is where inefficiency comes into play. Your system has to run longer due to the drop in temperature in your home to accommodate for the humidity levels which causes a spike in your bills.
Our team at Tower Equipment knows you should not have to run your air conditioning unit constantly which means spending more money in order to lower humidity levels in your home. This can also cause early wear and tear on your system. With this being said, a whole home Dehumidifier by Aprilaire can be the solution your family has been looking for!
A whole-home dehumidifier is installed as part of your home’s heating and cooling system. It works in conjunction with your air conditioner, or independently as needed, to remove the ideal amount of moisture to solve the below problems. But not so much that your home becomes too dry.
Without a dehumidifier, your home could be facing issues other than high bills such as:
- Wood warping and rotting in your home
- Mold and Mildew Growth
- Bug infestation including dust mites which are a significant issue for people with allergies
- Uncomfortable sweating at normal indoor temperatures
- Sticky skin in summer/clammy in winter
- Rooms smell musty
