Resources for Dehumidifiers

Unless you live in a desert, consider a dehumidifier. These items give bottom line benefits to preserving your facility from mold that increases the likelihood of repair costs, allergies and other health problems. Applications abound for situations from damp basements and musty odors to flooded homes and businesses. Humidifiers protect paper documents, books, valuables, equipment and furniture from damaging moisture and musty odors. Antiques and artwork need humidity monitoring for preservation.

Any air demoisturizer requires proper placement for optimum results. Unlike top venting units that don’t have problems against a wall, models venting air from the back need space between the dehumififier and any partition. Other factors to consider when buying a dehumidifier include:

1. Know the square footage of your building when considering industrial or commercial dehumidifiers to determine whether to buy a stand-alone or ducting model.

2. Get a commercial, office or home grade portable dehumidifier for easy storage and transporting.

3. Look for a personal or mini dehumidifier for small spaces, like closets and drawers, to protect special items and clothing.

Buy industrial dehumidifiers for large areas and restoration work

These powerful units, designed for warehouses, factories, offices, restaurants, locker rooms and computer rooms to name a few, maximize control over unwanted dampness.

Purchase commercial dehumidifiers to protect your business inventory

Professional dehumidifiers lessen the damage to your merchandise and equipment caused by mold and mildew. With rugged construction and capacity to remove excess moisture from rooms, buildings, warehouses and indoor pool areas, professional dehumifiers come in stand-alone or ducting models.

Get a portable dehumidifier for ease of use and less cost

For home, office, large or small areas portable models give room-to-room mobility. Keep the allergies away, protect furniture in storage and use in any place where dampness exists.
