Living in Missouri, we get to experience hot humid summers … and cold dry winters.
Proper humidity levels inside your home are critical where health and comfort are concerned. Both high and low humidity can cause big problems, but before we can really address the problems, it helps to understand the issue. Check out this video from Aprilaire below:
While it’s true that every air conditioning system is designed to remove heat and moisture from the air, the extremes we see in our region expose our homes to more moisture than our air conditioning unit can remove before each cycle ends. That is why a whole home dehumidifier can greatly increase our comfort and health, while helping us by reducing our utility over payment.
If your home is built over a crawlspace or basement, then a dehumidifier combined with a properly installed vapor barrier is a must have item to reduce the growth of mold and mildew.
High humidity is the leading cause of mold and mildew growth in a home, causing health concerns such as increased asthma and allergy issues.
Install a humidifier to relieve dryness and a dehumidifier to reduce moisture.
