Dehumidifier ApplicationsDehumidifiers are vital for environmental control in areas where humidity can rise above 50% naturally. At humidity levels above 50%, increased water vapor present in the air can begin to allow furniture to warp, accelerate wood rot, and harbor toxic mold and fungus (which cause odors and health problems). A dehumidifier draws water in from the air and collects it into a holding tank or out through a hose connection. A dehumidifier has a wide variety of applications, some of which might not immediately come to mind. Here are a few examples of why it's important to have a dehumidifier on hand at all times. Corrosion Prevention and ProtectionCorrosion occurs as a material changes from one form to another through
a chemical
reaction. Moisture in the air often speeds up this process significantly and
accelerates the reaction. Rust is a great example of this process. Rust occurs
when metals begin to corrode in the presence of water vapor. Rust and other
types of corrosion often shorten the lifespan of tools and other metal items
causing unnecessary repairs and multiple purchases. Dehumidifiers prevent
corrosion by eliminating excess moisture in the air. Condensation PreventionCondensation is another problem that a dehumidifier can help
eliminate. Condensation occurs when cold surfaces are surrounded by moist air.
Water vapor then collects on a surface. As a result, the surface proceeds to sweat,
which causes numerous problems
that includes the above mentioned corrosion. Mold, Mildew and Fungus PreventionFungi and mold are everywhere, although they often lay dormant.
They become dangerous when moisture is added to the air. Mold and fungi
growth can cause serious damage to your house and health. They feed on a variety of
material and can even warp your walls, windows, and furniture. Mildew and
mold can cover your bathroom and kitchen creating unsanitary conditions and
blemishes on tiles and other surfaces. HealthExcess humidity has also been known to negatively affect people's health.
Humidity leads to mold growth which is potentially dangerous when airborne. They affect your allergies and
have known to cause asthma. Moreover, excess humidity can affect a person's
lungs and lead a variety of lung diseases. The damp heat can affect
one's nasal passages too.
