Dehumidification systems can be
integrated into heating and cooling systems through the use of special humidity
sensing thermostats and variable speed furnaces.
Often, there is a need for a greater
level of dehumidification in the winter (i.e. in moisture ridden basements)
when the integrated system will not be running or when the moisture levels
are very extreme, such as in the summer.
There are a number of large capacity
dehumidification systems that can be added to your central heating and cooling
units or installed freestanding with its own duct work.
These systems are controlled by a
humidistat that senses high moisture levels. The dehumidification systems
operate all year and can remove moisture even in the dry winter months if
needed.
Reliable Heating & Air sells and
installs the Aprilaire 1750A, a whole-house humidifier, which we have found to
be the most trouble-free, long-lasting system in the market place.
Excess humidity is a breeding ground
for allergy triggers like mold, mildew and dust mites.
