FAQs
Why do I need a whole-home dehumidifier in Newcombâs climate?
Newcomb experiences humid summers and shoulder seasons when indoor moisture can rise well above the recommended 30â50 % range. Excess humidity encourages mould, dust-mite growth and musty odours, and it makes your air conditioner work harder. A properly sized, duct-connected dehumidifier extracts moisture from the entire living space, improving comfort, protecting furnishings and helping your HVAC system operate more efficiently year-round.
How does professional installation differ from setting up a portable unit myself?
Portable dehumidifiers treat only the room they are placed in, require manual emptying and raise noise levels. A professionally installed, whole-home unit ties into your existing ductwork and drainage, automatically sensing humidity and removing moisture from every conditioned room. Our licensed technicians in Newcomb calculate load requirements, handle electrical and condensate connections, seal ducts, calibrate controls and verify airflowâensuring maximum performance, energy efficiency and code compliance.
What size or capacity dehumidifier is right for my home?
Sizing is based on square footage, typical moisture load, insulation levels, occupancy and local design conditions. During a free in-home assessment we perform calculations using ACCA Manual J and manufacturer guidelines. Undersized units will short-cycle and leave air damp; oversized units waste energy and may over-dry the structure. We recommend capacities from 70â130 pints per day for most Newcomb residences, but we always confirm with precise measurements before quoting.
How long does a typical dehumidifier installation take, and will it disrupt my daily routine?
A standard retrofit into an existing HVAC system usually takes 4â6 hours. We start by protecting floors and furnishings, then install the dehumidifier in the mechanical room, attic or crawl space, connect it to supply/return ducts, wire the dedicated electrical circuit, run a PVC drain to a suitable outlet and program the humidistat. You can remain at home during the process, and we restore full heating and cooling service before we leave.
What maintenance does a central dehumidifier require after installation?
Maintenance is straightforward: replace or rinse the air filter every 3â6 months, check the condensate drain for clogs, and have the coil and blower inspected annually during your regular HVAC tune-up. Our installers will show you how to adjust the digital humidistat and schedule reminders. Enrolling in our preventive maintenance plan covers these tasks and extends the factory warranty.
Are there rebates, warranties or financing options available for dehumidifier installations?
Yes. Many ENERGY STARÂź-rated whole-home dehumidifiers qualify for state efficiency rebates or utility bill creditsâask us for the current Newcomb programs. Manufacturers typically offer 5-year parts warranties, and we include a 1-year labour guarantee. For qualified customers we provide 0 % APR financing for 12 months or low-interest terms up to 60 months, making it easy to control humidity without a large upfront expense.
