FAQs
Do I really need a dehumidifier in Sevierville?
Yes. Sevierville experiences high humidity, especially during the warmer months. A dehumidifier helps maintain healthy indoor humidity levels, reducing moisture that can lead to mold growth, musty odors, and discomfort. By removing excess moisture from the air, a dehumidifier improves indoor air quality and helps protect your home from moisture-related damage.
What is the difference between a standalone dehumidifier and a whole-home system?
A standalone (portable) dehumidifier typically serves a single area and must be manually emptied or drained. In contrast, a whole-home dehumidifier is integrated with your existing HVAC system. It continuously manages humidity throughout the entire house, automatically drains excess moisture, and operates more efficiently by balancing humidity levels in every room.
Where is the best place to install a dehumidifier?
For portable units, you’ll want to place them in areas where humidity is highest—often basements, crawl spaces, or bathrooms. If you’re opting for a whole-home dehumidifier, our technicians will typically install it as part of your HVAC system, located in the ductwork or near the air handler. This ensures that the dehumidifier can address humidity throughout your living spaces.
Will a dehumidifier help with allergy symptoms and indoor air quality?
Yes. Many allergens, such as dust mites and mold spores, thrive in damp environments. By reducing excess moisture in the air, a dehumidifier makes it less hospitable for these allergens to grow. Additionally, reduced humidity can relieve symptoms like congestion and watery eyes, improving overall indoor air quality for your family.
How often do dehumidifiers need maintenance?
Routine maintenance is typically minimal. For portable units, you’ll need to empty the water reservoir or keep the drain line clear. You should also clean or replace any air filters according to the manufacturer’s instructions. Whole-home dehumidifiers may require an annual check-up by a professional to ensure the drain lines are clear, the systems are free of debris, and the unit is operating at peak efficiency.
Does installing a dehumidifier reduce energy costs?
In many cases, yes. A dehumidifier helps keep your home more comfortable by removing excess moisture, so you may not feel the need to run your air conditioner as often or set it to as low a temperature. This can lead to lower cooling costs in the long run. Plus, controlling moisture levels helps your HVAC system run more efficiently overall.
