FAQs
Why is a whole-home dehumidifier important in Englewood’s climate?
Englewood experiences warm, humid conditions for much of the year, which can push indoor relative humidity well above the recommended 30-50 %. Excess moisture encourages mold growth, dust mites, wood warping, and that sticky, uncomfortable feeling you notice even when the A/C is on. A whole-home dehumidifier ties into your existing ductwork, quietly pulling moisture out of every room so you enjoy better comfort, healthier air, and added protection for furniture, flooring, and electronics.
How can I tell if my home needs a dehumidifier installation?
Typical warning signs include a persistent musty odor, visible condensation on windows, mildew spots on walls or ceilings, clammy air, or family members experiencing increased allergy or asthma symptoms. If your air-conditioning runs non-stop yet the house still feels damp, it is likely working overtime to remove humidity instead of simply cooling. Our Comfort & Control technicians can perform a quick in-home humidity assessment to confirm whether a dehumidifier will solve the problem.
What kinds of dehumidifiers do Comfort & Control Heating & Air Conditioning install?
We specialize in high-capacity, whole-home units from leading manufacturers such as Aprilaire, Honeywell, and Trane. Options include: • Stand-alone ducted systems that integrate with your existing HVAC air handler • Dedicated crawl-space or basement units for below-grade moisture control • Energy-efficient models with built-in MERV-11 air filtration and automatic humidity sensors. All models are Energy-Star® rated, come with 5-year factory warranties, and are sized to match your square footage and moisture load.
What is involved in the installation process and how long will it take?
Most installations are completed in a single day. Our team will: 1) perform a load calculation to choose the right-sized unit; 2) mount the dehumidifier near your air handler or in the crawl space; 3) connect it to the supply/return ductwork; 4) run a dedicated condensate drain to a floor drain or condensate pump; 5) wire the control panel or integrate it with your smart thermostat; and 6) test the entire system for proper airflow and humidity set points. We always lay down drop cloths, wear shoe covers, and leave your home exactly as we found it.
Will adding a dehumidifier raise my energy bills?
In most cases you’ll see little to no increase—and many homeowners report lower utility costs. Because dry air feels cooler, you can set the thermostat 2-3 °F higher and still feel comfortable. Your A/C will cycle less often, reducing wear and tear as well as electricity consumption. Modern whole-home units draw roughly the same power as a 40-watt light bulb when running at maintenance speed, and their Energy-Star® certification ensures peak efficiency.
How do I maintain my new dehumidifier, and do you offer service plans?
Maintenance is simple: check and clean the air filter every 3-6 months, verify that the condensate drain remains clear, and inspect the coil annually. Comfort & Control offers affordable ComfortCare plans that bundle your dehumidifier, furnace, and air-conditioner tune-ups into two visits per year. Members receive priority scheduling, 15 % off repairs, and automatic warranty documentation, so your system stays protected for the long haul.
