Dehumidifier Installation in The Finger Lakes

Take control of excess indoor air moisture

Even if your home has the latest heating and cooling system, the moisture in the air may be making you feel uncomfortable. Addressing comfort in the home is very important to your family's quality of life. High humidity can cause us to feel hot and sticky and can also contribute to smelly odors in the home.

Indoor health concerns: preserve wellness!

Moisture is also an excellent breeding ground for hundreds of types of mold, mildew, and other home invaders such as dust mites. Not only can these things attack your home's structure and furnishings, but they can attack your family's health as well. Some of the common reactions to these allergy triggers include stuffy nose, sneezing, difficulty breathing, itchy and watery eyes, and even skin rashes or other irritation.

Humidity control is a crucial part of creating healthy indoor air and reducing airborne viruses and pests.

Symptoms of a humidity problem

  • Do you ever wake up because the house seems stuffy?
  • Do you sometimes feel cold and clammy in your home?
  • Have you ever found that the floors and surfaces in your house feel sticky to the touch?
  • Do you have musty odors in any area of your home?

If you've answered yes to any of these questions, excess humidity could be to blame.

Signs you need a dehumidifier

In addition to suffering from allergies due to humidity, you may also want to consider a dehumidifier if you have any obvious signs of humidity in your home or in certain areas of your home. These obvious signs include:

  • A moist or wet basement
  • Water stains on the walls or ceiling
  • Musty or mildew smells
  • Poor or no ventilation in high humidity rooms (areas like bathrooms that have no windows)
  • Small black spots on the walls in areas of high humidity (mold spores)
  • Condensation on the windows in certain areas of your home

Airtight homes have moisture too!

If your home has been air sealed to improve comfort and energy efficiency your heating and cooling system should be running less often. Because they operate less in a tighter home, less moisture is removed. Here at Halco, we understand maintaining indoor air quality in your home is important. Dehumidifiers require minimal maintenance and can remove all that excess moisture from your home.

Benefits of installing a dehumidifier

  • Reduce humidity levels. Making your home more comfortable and less susceptible to allergens such as mold, mildew, and dust mites.
  • Stop mold and mildew. Mold and mildew can grow when relative humidity levels go above 50%. By drying out moist areas with a dehumidifier, you can create a drier environment that's "hostile" to mold and mildew.
  • Eliminating musty odors. Getting rid of mold and mildew will do away with the bad smells in your living space.
  • Lower energy costs. An effective dehumidifier will help your air conditioning unit run more efficiently. With no dehumidifier, your A/C must work harder and longer to both cool and remove moisture.
  • Protect family health. Mold reproduces by putting microscopic spores into the air. These airborne organisms trigger allergic reactions and respiratory ailments in many individuals. Effective dehumidification will allow you to breathe easier and feel comfortable in your home.

Dehumidifier Options

SaniDry dehumidifiers are designed to handle tough basement and crawl space conditions reliably and efficiently. Unlike standard, suitcase-size dehumidifiers designed to for room-sized dehumidification tasks, SaniDry models have the capacity to dehumidify a 2500 sq. ft. basement or crawl space. And, thanks to a dual-stage air filtration system, SaniDry dehumidifiers can also clean the air by removing mold spores, dust mite debris and other particulate matter.

The SaniDry Sedona is the worlds most efficient, high-performance dehumidifier, without a bulky heat exchange core. It is small enough to fit into most crawl spaces while maintaining a powerful enough blower to effectively dry a large crawlspace. 

The SaniDry Sedona dehumidifier drains automatically and has a humidity sensor that monitors the air, so once it's installed there's nothing else to do. Your crawlspace will be drier and healthier - and so will your home too!
