Dehumidifiers

Excess moisture in your home can cause undesirable conditions such as an increase in uncomfortable humidity, the potential for mold and mildew and increased heath risks. Combat a humid home with dehumidifiers from Ace.

Home dehumidifiers help to reduce moisture in your home by pulling in damp air and removing the excess moisture with a series of cooled coils existing within the dehumidifier unit. The moisture remains on the coils inside the unit and eventually drains out into the dehumidifier’s reservoir. The unit then releases the dry air back into the room. Portable dehumidifiers are most commonly used in the home and operate simply by plugging into an outlet. An electric dehumidifier is easy to use and easy to maintain.

Dehumidifiers are available in a range of sizes and capacities. The type of unit you choose will likely depend on where you will be using the dehumidifier and how much moisture you will need to collect. A small dehumidifier is ideal for a small space, such as a closet, while larger room humidifiers should effectively work in spaces up to 3000 square feet or more. When purchasing a dehumidifier it is also important to consider the water capacity of the unit. Since you will have to empty the unit as water collects, you should choose a larger capacity unit for large rooms that hold more moisture, such as a basement.

A dehumidifier will help to keep your home dry and comfortable and may even help improve your home’s air quality. Let Ace Hardware help you find the dehumidifier that is right for your home.
