FAQs
Why is a whole-home dehumidifier important for homes in Evensville?
Evensvilleâs warm summers and high annual rainfall create indoor humidity levels that regularly exceed the 50% comfort threshold. Excess moisture promotes mold, dust-mites, musty odors, and can even damage wood floors and furniture. A whole-home dehumidifier integrated with your HVAC system keeps relative humidity in the 40-50% range throughout the entire house, improving indoor air quality, protecting the building structure, and making your air conditioner run more efficiently.
How is a whole-home dehumidifier installed with my existing HVAC system?
During installation we mount the dehumidifier in the supplyâreturn plenum or on a dedicated bypass duct near your air handler. The unit pulls moist air from the return side, removes water, and sends the dried air back into the supply stream. A condensate drain is tied to your homeâs plumbing or a condensate pump. We also wire the dehumidifier to its own humidistat or integrate it into your smart thermostat so it operates automatically whenever humidity rises above your set point.
Will adding a dehumidifier increase my energy bills?
The dehumidifier itself consumes a small amount of electricity, but by lowering indoor humidity it lets you raise the thermostat 2â3 °F while feeling just as cool. Your air conditioner runs shorter cycles, which typically offsetsâand often exceedsâthe dehumidifierâs energy use. Many customers see overall energy savings of 5-10 % during peak cooling months.
How long does a professional dehumidifier installation take in Evensville?
Most residential installations are completed in one visit lasting 3â5 hours. This includes sizing verification, ductwork modifications, electrical and condensate connections, start-up testing, and homeowner orientation. Larger homes, crawl-space units, or complex zoning systems can extend the job to a full day, but rarely longer.
What maintenance does a whole-home dehumidifier require?
Maintenance is straightforward: 1) Replace or clean the dehumidifierâs air filter every 6â12 months, 2) Inspect and flush the condensate drain annually to prevent clogs, and 3) Have our technician check refrigerant pressures and coils during your spring or fall HVAC tune-up. With proper care, quality units last 8-15 years.
How do I know what capacity dehumidifier my house needs?
Capacity is measured in pints of moisture removed per day. We perform an on-site calculation that factors in square footage, ceiling height, insulation level, number of occupants, and typical indoor humidity. In Evensville, most single-family homes need units rated between 70 and 120 pints/day. Oversizing wastes energy, while undersizing leaves rooms damp, so professional sizing is critical.
