FAQs

Why is a whole-home dehumidifier important for houses in Jacksboro?

Jacksboro’s warm summers and frequent rain mean indoor relative humidity often climbs above the recommended 50% level. Excess moisture can lead to mold growth, musty odors, buckling hardwood floors, and a heavier load on your air conditioner. A properly sized whole-home dehumidifier continuously removes moisture from the air, improving comfort, protecting furnishings and structural materials, and helping your cooling system run more efficiently.

How will a dehumidifier integrate with my existing heating and air-conditioning system?

Most whole-home units tie directly into your supply and return ductwork. Our technicians mount the dehumidifier near the air handler, cut precise openings in the ducts, and wire the unit to the HVAC blower so both systems work as one. Moist air is drawn into the dehumidifier, moisture is condensed and drained away, and the drier air is delivered back through your supply vents. The system uses its own humidistat, or we can program a compatible smart thermostat so you control temperature and humidity from one interface.

What size or capacity dehumidifier will my home need?

Capacity is measured in pints of moisture removed per day. A 2,000–2,500 sq-ft Jacksboro home typically needs a 70- to 90-pint unit, but variables such as crawl spaces, number of occupants, insulation quality, and everyday activities (cooking, showers, etc.) can raise or lower that requirement. During our free in-home assessment we perform a Manual J moisture load calculation, inspect duct integrity, and check for infiltration points to recommend the correct model—ensuring you never pay for more capacity than you need.

What is involved in the installation process and how long will it take?

Installation usually takes 4–6 hours. We begin by protecting floors and belongings, then position the dehumidifier, install vibration-isolating mounts, and connect supply/return duct collars. Next, we run a dedicated condensate drain line with an air-gap and optional condensate pump, wire the unit to a 120-V or 240-V circuit per manufacturer specs, and program the humidistat. Before leaving, we test for proper airflow and confirm the unit reaches set-point within 15–20 minutes.

How much does a professional dehumidifier installation cost in the Jacksboro area, and will it save me money?

Installed pricing typically ranges from $1,800 to $4,000, depending on capacity, duct modifications, electrical upgrades, and whether a crawl-space liner or additional return duct is needed. While that’s an investment, homeowners often see 10–15% reductions in summer energy bills because the A/C runs shorter cycles. Added benefits include fewer mold-remediation costs, longer-lasting furnishings, and increased property value, all of which offset the upfront expense over time.

What maintenance is required after installation, and do you offer service plans?

Whole-home units are low-maintenance: replace or rinse the air filter every 3–6 months, clear the condensate drain annually, and have coils and electrical connections inspected once a year. Tailored Solutions Heating & Air Conditioning offers an affordable Comfort Club plan that includes an annual dehumidifier tune-up, priority scheduling, and discounts on any needed repairs, ensuring your system continues to control humidity efficiently for 10–15 years.
