How the Best Dehumidifier Can Help You
A whole–house dehumidifier is an appliance integrated into the HVAC system of a home that works in conjunction with the air conditioner. An AC has some dehumidifying properties since its refrigerant coil draws moisture from the air at the same time it draws heat. But an AC isn’t effective for handling the intense humidity levels of Naples, FL. You’ll need a dedicated dehumidifier. A whole–house dehumidifier removes heat and moisture from the air in the HVAC system, without interfering with the air conditioner’s operation.
The best dehumidifier in a house will improve comfort tremendously. On most days, balanced humidity (between 30% and 50%) will make the air feel as if it were 8° to 10°F cooler. This will also translate into lower costs to run the air conditioner. Controlled humidity also helps to prevent water damage to construction material and stops the growth of mold and mildew.
What about the Best Humidifier?
Low humidity isn’t talked about as much in Florida, but it’s something that can happen during cooler parts of the year. When relative humidity dips below 30%, it will add a chilly edge to the air. It also encourages the faster spread of cold and other illnesses because it causes membranes and sinuses to dry up and remove an important defense against viruses and germs. Finally, dry air leads to cracking wood and peeling paint, as well as skin and throat irritation. A professionally installed whole–house humidifier can prevent all these problems with low humidity.
