FAQs
Why is a whole-home dehumidifier important in Morristown’s climate?
Morristown experiences hot, muggy summers and damp shoulder seasons. Excess indoor humidity (above 55 %) can lead to mold growth, musty odors, aggravated allergies, and damaged woodwork. A properly sized dehumidifier keeps relative humidity in the ideal 40–50 % range, improving comfort, protecting your home’s structure, and helping your air conditioner cool more efficiently.
How does your latest-technology heating & air-conditioning system integrate with a dehumidifier?
Our systems use a central controller that communicates with both the HVAC air handler and the whole-home dehumidifier over a dedicated data cable. When indoor humidity rises above your setpoint, the controller signals the dehumidifier to run independently of the AC compressor, removing moisture without over-cooling the space. The result is precise temperature and humidity control, lower run-times for your AC, and quieter operation.
What should I expect during installation and how long does it take?
A typical retrofit in an existing Morristown home takes 4–6 hours. We mount the dehumidifier near your furnace or air handler, tie the supply and return ducts into the main trunk, install a dedicated condensate drain line with an overflow safety switch, and wire the low-voltage controls to the smart thermostat. New-construction installs are usually completed in a single half-day visit during the mechanical stage.
Will adding a dehumidifier lower my energy bills?
Yes. Because drier air feels cooler, you can often raise your thermostat 2–3 °F without losing comfort, cutting AC run-time by up to 12 %. The dehumidifier itself uses modest power—typically 3–5 ¢ per hour—but the net effect is an average 5–15 % reduction in summer electricity bills for Morristown homeowners.
How often does the dehumidifier need maintenance?
Routine maintenance is simple. The MERV-8 intake filter should be checked every 90 days and replaced when dirty. The internal coil and condensate pan are cleaned during your annual HVAC tune-up. Under normal use, the unit’s desiccant wheel or refrigeration circuit is designed to last 8–10 years before any major service is required.
What warranties and service plans do you provide?
All dehumidifiers we install carry a 5-year parts warranty and 1-year labor warranty. If you enroll in our ComfortGuard plan, we extend labor coverage to 5 years, include one free filter replacement annually, and provide priority service with a 15 % discount on any future repairs to your heating, cooling, or IAQ equipment.
