Living in the south, air conditioning is necessary however not enough. Although centralized cooling systems have significantly improved in design over the years, they can’t handle excess humidity. An cooling system works by pulling heat out of the indoor air as well as using refrigerant to transfer it outdoors. In the area where I live, the high humidity levels are a immense concern, however when the temperature soars into the nineties, the excessive amount of moisture in the air makes it assume hotter as well as honestly sticky, however even with the cooling system running, I had troubles with condensation running down the window panes. I was always battling mold as well as mildew growth as well as worrying about air quality threats… Lowering the thermostat setting just put more strain on the cooling system, over-cooled the air as well as led to higher biweekly bills. It didn’t solve the actual complication of too much moisture. When I started to notice destruction to my hardwood floors as well as antique furnishings, I knew it was time to take proactive measures. I looked into the odd makes, models as well as styles of dehumidifiers. This style of air quality accessory isn’t overly expensive as well as installs into the existing cooling system. It extracts moisture out of the air as it passes through the system. I now have the ability to adjust relative humidity levels in the beach house to my preference. I’ve been able to raise the thermostat setting by several degrees as well as yet every room feels cooler as well as more comfortable. The savings on the biweekly biweekly bills has abruptly reuseed the initial investment. I should have had a dehumidifier installed years ago.
