Dehumidifiers in Santa Clarita
Dry Your Home with Our Energy-Efficient Dehumidifiers
When the air in your home is excessively humid, it can cause a number of problems. The moisture in the air can cause wood to warp and crack, ruin electronic equipment, breed mold, and even damage your home's structure. Santa Clarita's dry climate makes it especially important to have a good dehumidifier.
Signs You Need a Dehumidifier
There are a number of signs that you need to install a dehumidifier in your home. Depending on the severity of the humidity, you may need to use it all year round or just during the summer months.
You may need a dehumidifier if you notice:
- Mold or mildew growing in your home
- Soggy carpet or floors
- Water pooling in your basement or crawl space
- Musty smells and tastes in your drinking water
- High humidity levels in your home
- Wood warping, cracking, or rotting
- Skin irritation, allergies, or asthma flare-ups when you're in your home
- Higher energy bills due to the air conditioner running more
What Is the Best Dehumidifier for My Home?
There are many different types of dehumidifiers, and it can be difficult to figure out which one is the best for your home. The main factors that affect which type you need are the size and the humidity levels in your home.
There are a few common types of dehumidifiers that are available:
- Refrigerant Dehumidifiers: These dehumidifiers are the most common type on the market. They are also the most energy-efficient type, using about 40% less energy than other types. They use a compressor to collect the moisture from the air and then a fan to blow the air out. These dehumidifiers are great for smaller spaces, and they can usually be mounted on a wall.
- Desiccant Dehumidifiers: These dehumidifiers use a desiccant to collect moisture from the air. They are very energy-efficient, but they do have a few downsides. They must be replaced every few years, and they are not ideal for spaces larger than 2,000 square feet.
- Evaporative Dehumidifiers: These dehumidifiers use a fan to blow air over a moistened filter. This creates a humid air that is blown through your home. This type of dehumidifier is great for large spaces, but it does have a few downsides. It is not as energy-efficient as refrigerant or desiccant dehumidifiers, and it does not remove all of the moisture from the air.
