FAQs
Why is a whole-home dehumidifier important for homes in Rogersville?
Rogersville experiences long, humid summers and mild, damp winters, causing indoor moisture levels to regularly exceed the 50% comfort threshold. Excess humidity encourages mold growth, dust-mite activity, musty odors, and warped woodwork. A whole-home dehumidifier pulls moisture from every conditioned room, protecting your homeâs structure, improving indoor air quality, and helping your air conditioner run more efficiently because it no longer has to work as hard to remove moisture while cooling.
How does a dehumidifier integrate with my existing heating and air-conditioning system?
Our state-of-the-art dehumidifiers are installed in your supply or return ductwork, where they draw warm, moist air from the living space, remove the excess moisture, and send the drier air back through the HVAC system. The unit is wired to your thermostat or a dedicated humidistat for automatic, set-and-forget operation. Because it shares the duct network, you enjoy even humidity control across every room without needing multiple portable units.
What size dehumidifier will my home need, and how do you determine it?
Proper sizing is based on square footage, typical moisture load, local climate data for Rogersville, and the tightness of your building envelope. During your free in-home evaluation, our technician measures your home, inspects insulation and ventilation, and performs a Manual J-based moisture calculation. We then recommend a unit with the right pint-per-day capacityâusually between 70 and 120 pints for most area homesâto ensure efficient operation without short-cycling or excessive run time.
Will adding a dehumidifier increase my energy bills?
While the dehumidifier itself uses electricity, most homeowners see little to no net increase in utility costsâand many see a decrease. By lowering humidity, you can raise your thermostat 2â3 °F while feeling just as cool, reducing air-conditioner run time. In winter, balanced humidity also allows you to feel warmer at a lower heat setting. Our ENERGY STARÂŽ certified models consume as little as 3â5 cents per hour, which is typically offset by HVAC savings.
How long does installation take and will it disrupt my daily routine?
Standard installations are completed in one business day. We arrive with all required equipment, fabricate any needed duct transitions onsite, and install a dedicated condensate drain line or tie into your existing plumbing. Our team places drop cloths, wears boot covers, and cleans up before leaving. You can stay in your home during the process, and there is usually less than 30 minutes of HVAC downtime while we integrate the unit and test the system.
What maintenance is required after installation, and do you offer service plans?
Maintenance is minimal: simply replace or rinse the dehumidifierâs MERV filter every 6â12 months and ensure the condensate line remains clear. During our annual HVAC tune-up, we inspect the dehumidifier coil, blower, and controls, check refrigerant levels, and sanitize the drain pan. We offer affordable Comfort Club plans that bundle dehumidifier service with your heating and cooling maintenance, extend labor warranties to 10 years, and provide priority scheduling and parts discounts.
