Reasons to Consider a Dehumidifier in Austin, TX

Monday, June 23rd, 2014

Does it feel a bit muggy in your home during the summer months? Even with your AC blasting, does it still feel a bit uncomfortable? We constantly focus on temperature when it comes to home comfort, and not without good reason. It’s certainly the primary indicator of comfort, but it’s not only the factor to take into consideration. The humidity levels of your indoor air are equally important, and when they fall below or rise above the ideal range, the results can be much more than negligible. In particular, high humidity levels can cause all sorts of trouble.

You may find that your indoor air leaves your skin feeling sticky during the summer months, or that your bathroom and kitchen walls and floors are wet with condensation, not to mention your windows. Allowing such high moisture issues to linger can provide disastrous in the long-term as it can lead to structural damage.

Here Are Some Reasons to Consider a Dehumidifier for Your Austin, TX Home

  • Reduce your cooling needs. The higher the humidity, the greater the perceived temperature. The hotter the temperature is, the greater the amount of water vapor it can hold, and the two conspire during the summer months to make comfort a challenge. A whole dehumidifier allows you to adjust the temperature a bit higher than you otherwise would as dehumidification lowers the perceived temperature. We know that cooling in the summer is expensive. Any chance you have at reducing your energy bill in the long-term is worth taking seriously.
  • Improve your comfort. A dehumidifier can help you to achieve a greater level of comfort in your home. By reducing the humidity level, you also improve the quality of the indoor air. Your air will be less stale and muggy, and there is less of a chance of your indoor air developing biological contaminants that are linked to high humidity.
  • Avoid moisture-related problems. With a professionally installed humidifier, you can also other moisture-related problems that can occur within your home. High moisture content can take a serious toll on wooden and painted surfaces over time, and the presence of such moisture can be a breeding ground for mold, mildew and bacteria.
