Dehumidifiers - The Best Protection Against Mold
Humidity occurs where ever there is a buildup of moisture in the air that makes the weight of air feel heavy and oppressive. This generally occurs in high temperature climates that are fairly forested areas or where there is a buildup of smog. Humidity can make a moderate temperature of 80 degrees feel ten to fifteen degrees hotter and more uncomfortable. Too much humidity over a prolonged period of time creates mold in basements and other areas of a home or business. Mold buildup affects the sinuses and lungs and can be dangerous if allowed to continue to grow. When humidity in a home or business is prevalent, it may be time to consider regular use of a dehumidifier.
Dehumidifying your environment
Normal amounts of humidity don’t inhibit activities. When high levels of humidity occur, a dehumidifier takes in the moisture through an input vent and releases the high levels of moisture in the air to a tank where the water is collected. The second part of the operation of dehumidifiers is the use of a fan that recirculates the air that has been recycled by dehumifiers. In addition, it reduces humidity by returning humid air in a home or business to ambient air. The fan recirculates a fresh source of drier air.
Dehumidifers For Good Health
For individuals who suffer from Asthma or other lung illnesses, dehumidifiers make breathing less difficult. In general, dehumidifiers may also be needed in large commercial areas where documents are stored to protect them from mold and damage from high humidity. Museums, data collection systems and archival storage areas all benefit from dehumidifiers. In many clothing manufacturing businesses located in areas of high humidity, dehumidifiers work in conjunction with the air controlled heat and cooling units. Certain types of food distribution centers also make use of dehumidifiers to protect foodstuffs from gathering mold until they are shipped to local grocery stores.
