HVAC Dehumidifier Installation Services in OK & North TX

A whole-house dehumidifier is a device that is directly connected to your home HVAC system to control the amount of moisture in the air. As the name suggests, this dehumidifier works to control your entire house's humidity rather than a small separate unit you would use for a specific area.

When connected to your HVAC, the dehumidifier draws in your hot and humid home air through your air ducts. When collected, the air is then cooled down, condensing the moisture from the air into water. That water is either stored in a separate container/pan or pushed directly into your drainage system. With only cool air left, it is sent back through the ductwork, which in turn balances your home’s humidity level, making it much more comfortable.

On the opposite end, when the humidity level gets too low in your home, it requires the use of a humidifier to provide the needed moisture back into the air.

A whole-house dehumidifier does a lot of good for you and your home. By having one installed, a dehumidifier helps:

• Control Moisture Level: HVAC dehumidifiers keep moisture levels under control. When there is too much humidity, it can worsen the living conditions of your home and cause wood, drywall, and other surfaces to warp.
• Increases HVAC Efficiency: While systems like your AC do help your humidity levels, when there is an excessive level, the machine strains itself trying to keep things cool and dry. Having a dehumidifier eases the strain on your HVAC, allowing for better performance and reduced risk of a breakdown.
• Prevents Mold Growth: There is nothing mold loves more than a moist environment. Mold and mildew can not only reach areas like your air ducts but can also adversely affect the health of the air you breathe. With moisture control from a whole-house dehumidifier, mold is unable to grow.

Unless you have a hydrometer on hand, high moisture levels are not easy to detect. Luckily some indicators tell you it's time to get a whole-house dehumidifier installed. Look for these signs:

Constant Sticky, Humid Home Feel

When humidity levels start getting higher and higher, the amount of moisture creates an uncomfortable sticky feeling in the air. If your home feels like this even after using the cooling from your AC, you’ll need a dehumidifier to get the humidity under control.

Frequent Condensation on Windows or Doors

If you check areas like windows or doors and there is a form of wetness there, it indicates that humidity levels are too high. This wetness occurs due to the difference between the temperature outside and inside, as the warm air gets trapped in areas like the window and develops condensation.

Musty Odors

Bad odors inside your indicate there is a humidity problem. Check areas like your carpets and if there is a particularly musty smelly, then it means these surfaces are absorbing moisture-saturated air, causing awful odors.

Mold Growth

High humidity leads to a moist environment perfect for mold to begin growing. When moisture levels are not balanced out, mold and mildew can continue growing.

Creaky Floors, Doors, and Cabinets

When you have lived in a home for long enough, creaking doors and floors don’t seem like much. But if the creaking becomes more and more prevalent, this should clue you into excessive moisture being absorbed by wood structures. Over time, the expansion of moisture can risk the integrity of these parts of your home.
