Dehumidifier Repair & Installation

While AC systems remove some moisture, they're designed primarily for cooling, not humidity control. During mild weather when the AC runs less, or in particularly humid conditions, a dedicated dehumidifier maintains optimal humidity levels more efficiently, preventing mold, protecting your home, and improving comfort without over-cooling.

For Florida homes, indoor humidity should be kept between 30-50%, with 40-45% being ideal. Higher humidity promotes mold growth, dust mites, and structural damage. Lower humidity can cause respiratory discomfort. A whole-home dehumidifier with automatic controls maintains the perfect level year-round.

Whole-home dehumidifiers integrate with your HVAC system to treat your entire house automatically, have much larger capacity, require minimal maintenance, and operate quietly. Portable units only treat one room, need frequent emptying, are noisy, and are less energy efficient for whole-home humidity control.

Yes! Mold thrives in humid environments above 60% relative humidity. By maintaining humidity below 50%, a dehumidifier creates an environment where mold cannot grow. However, existing mold should be professionally remediated before installing a dehumidifier to prevent future growth.

While dehumidifiers use electricity, they can actually reduce overall energy costs. By removing excess moisture, your AC doesn't have to work as hard or run as long to achieve comfort. Additionally, properly controlled humidity allows you to set your thermostat higher while maintaining the same comfort level, reducing cooling costs.
