Beat the Heat: Why This Award-Winning Dehumidifier is a Summer Essential

Introduction

If the heat and humidity of the summer months can turn your home into an uncomfortable and sticky environment, can you imagine what it does to your basement or crawl space? The SaniDry™ Sedona, our award-winning, patented dehumidifier is here to save the day, transforming your basement or crawl space into a cool, dry haven. Stay comfortable this summer and read about why this innovative device is an essential addition to your summer comfort toolkit.

Signs of High Humidity in Your Basement or Crawl Space

First, let's discuss how humidity affects your basement or crawl space. While some signs are obvious, some damage can be hidden and moisture in the crawl space can cause problems throughout the home. Here are some signs of high humidity:

  • Musty odors
  • Mold growth
  • Buckling hardwood floors
  • Damp, smelly carpets
  • Increased heating and cooling bills

How Do Dehumidifiers Work?

Dehumidifiers remove excess moisture from the air to reduce the humidity level of the surrounding space. Air enters the dehumidifier through a fan where it is then cooled by several coils. Since colder air is less likely to retain water, the moisture from the air is condensed into water droplets and flushed out through a drain.

The now-dry air is then passed over a warm coil where it is transported back out of the dehumidifier and around the room.

Benefits of a Dehumidifier

Energy Efficiency: Dehumidifiers help to reduce the overall energy consumption in the home. By maintaining optimal humidity levels, dehumidifiers allow air conditioning systems to operate more efficiently, thereby lowering electricity usage and reducing utility bills. Not only that, but this efficiency contributes to a greener, more sustainable living environment.

Improved Air Quality: Allergens such as mold, mildew, and dust mites thrive in humid environments. By lowering humidity levels, dehumidifiers create a less hospitable environment for these allergens, leading to cleaner and healthier indoor air. This can significantly alleviate allergy symptoms and respiratory issues for household members. 

Structural Preservation: Excessive moisture can cause damage to a home’s foundation, walls, and other structural elements. Humidity can lead to wood rot, warping, and the growth of mold, which can compromise the integrity of the building over time. By maintaining optimal humidity levels, dehumidifiers protect these structural components, extending the lifespan of the home and reducing the need for costly repairs.

Comfort and Usability: By reducing excessive humidity, a dehumidifier creates a more comfortable and pleasant indoor environment. High humidity creates sticky, clammy environments, making living spaces less comfortable. Dehumidifiers help protect furniture, electronics, and other household items from moisture damage.

Odor Reduction: Dehumidifiers help eliminate musty smells caused by excess moisture in the air. By reducing humidity levels, dehumidifiers inhibit the growth of mold, mildew, and bacteria that produce the unpleasant odors commonly found in basements and crawl spaces. This enhances the overall indoor living experience with fresher, cleaner air throughout the home.

Maintenance and Cost Savings: Moisture-related issues can lead to expensive repairs if action is not taken. The dehumidifier controls humidity levels and reduces the risk of mold growth, wood rot, and structural damage. In turn, this minimizes maintenance needs and prolongs the lifespan of the home.
