FAQs
Why should I consider a whole-home dehumidifier for my Dunlap residence?
Dunlap’s warm, humid summers and shoulder seasons can push indoor relative humidity above the recommended 45–55% range. Excess moisture promotes mold, mildew, dust-mite activity, musty odors, and wood warping. A whole-home dehumidifier removes this excess moisture quietly and automatically, helping protect your family’s health, your home’s structure, and valuables such as hardwood floors, musical instruments, and electronics.
How does a professionally installed dehumidifier work with my existing heating and air-conditioning system?
Our technicians connect the dehumidifier to your home’s main return or supply plenum. When humidity rises above your setpoint, the unit draws air from the ductwork, removes moisture through a refrigeration coil, and sends the drier air back into the supply stream. This integrated approach treats every room, avoids the noise and limited coverage of portable units, and can even allow you to set your AC thermostat a few degrees higher without sacrificing comfort.
What size or capacity dehumidifier will I need?
Proper sizing depends on your home’s square footage, ceiling heights, existing insulation, air-leakage rate, number of occupants, and typical indoor activities such as cooking or showering. During our on-site assessment we perform a Manual J-based moisture load calculation and recommend a unit rated in pints per day that matches your specific needs—usually between 70 and 120 pints for most Dunlap homes. Correct sizing ensures efficient operation, consistent humidity control, and longer equipment life.
How long does installation take and will it disrupt my daily routine?
Most whole-home dehumidifier installations in Dunlap can be completed in half a day (about 3–5 hours). We schedule at your convenience, protect work areas with drop cloths, and coordinate any electrical work with a licensed electrician if a new dedicated circuit is required. When we finish, we test the system, review the digital humidistat settings with you, and leave your home as clean as we found it.
What maintenance is required after installation?
Maintenance is straightforward: clean or replace the air filter every 6–12 months, ensure the condensate line stays clear, and have the refrigeration coil inspected annually during your regular HVAC tune-up. We offer affordable maintenance plans that bundle dehumidifier service with furnace and AC checkups, providing priority scheduling and discount pricing on any needed repairs.
Can a dehumidifier really lower my energy bills and improve air quality?
Yes. By removing latent heat (moisture), a dehumidifier makes the air feel cooler, allowing you to raise the thermostat 2–3°F while maintaining the same comfort level—cutting cooling costs by up to 10%. Lower humidity also reduces the workload on your air conditioner, potentially extending its lifespan. In terms of air quality, drier conditions inhibit mold spores, bacteria, and dust mites, leading to fewer allergic reactions and a fresher-smelling home.
