Signs You Need a Whole Home Dehumidifier
Uncomfortable Temperatures
Having high humidity is extremely uncomfortable. The air feels sticky, wet, and hot, and makes it very difficult to ever get comfortable. This sticky humidity feeling is unmistakable: if you have experienced it, there is no forgetting it! If you are suffering from uncomfortable temperatures and the byproducts of an overly humid home, you likely are in need of a whole-house dehumidifier system.
Wet Interior Windows
Windows produce moisture on their exterior quite frequently due to weather and the elements. But, if you have noticed moisture on the interior of your windows, you likely have a problem with excess moisture and humidity in your Oahu, HI home. In homes with high humidity, windows and/or other glass surfaces will produce condensation, which is a tell-tale sign you are in need of expert whole-home dehumidifier installation services.
Mold
Anytime there is mold in your home, there is too much moisture! While this can sometimes be due to other issues, such as plumbing leaks or roofing leaks, for example, if you are experiencing any of the other mentioned signs and have found mold in your Oahu, HI home, you probably have excess humidity in your home. Mold can be extremely dangerous to you and your family’s health and will need to be addressed right away.
Water Stains
Much like condensation on your windows, when there is excess moisture in your home, condensation can build up on your walls as well. This will usually result in water stains across your walls. If you are noticing water stains on your walls, particularly in combination with any of the aforementioned signs of excess humidity, you will need to have a whole-home dehumidifier installed before these water stains turn into mold!
Incorrect HVAC Unit or Furnace
When your HVAC system and/or your furnace are the incorrect size, typically when they are too large for your Oahu, HI home, this can result in excess moisture and humidity. If you are experiencing high humidity in your home, your HVAC unit or furnace may be the issue! In the event you suspect that your HVAC unit may have been incorrectly installed and too large for your home, you will need to have your home inspected and evaluated for a whole-home dehumidifier system.
