Is your bathroom becoming moldy in the past days? Or are your windows having wet stains? Much worse, are your children complaining of more frequent asthma attacks and allergies? If you have been experiencing these cases, then humidification is happening in your house. And having too much or too little humidity in your house can be bad.

Humidity is the water vapor concentration in the air. Humidity monitoring should be done in order to ensure that there is not too much humidity for biological organisms to thrive in your house, or too less humidity to give you hard time in breathing.

Dehumidification is necessary in order to have effective humidity monitoring and control. Dehumidification is, literally, the removal of water vapor from the air. An air dehumidifier is a household appliance that reduces the level of humidity in a room.

Air dehumidifiers are often classified in three types: heat pump dehumidifier, chemical absorbent dehumidifier and dehumidifying ventilator.

Heat pump air dehumidifiers remove moisture from the air without cooling the air. All it needs is a fan that draws air into a coil that is almost freezing. It is then condensed and reheated by a second coil and exhausted in the room.

Chemical absorbent air dehumidifiers are suitable to areas with hot or humid climates. The desiccant, a chemical drying agent, absorbs moisture from the air. However, a chemical adsorbent air dehumidifier uses more energy than a heat pump air dehumidifier.

Dehumidifying ventilators are very effective in humidity monitoring. This air dehumidifier runs once the humidification has reached a certain level. They can be effective in cold weather. A dehumidifying ventilator is particularly effective if the source of humidification is in your basement.

In our homes, we often use the whole house dehumidifiers to protect our children and our furniture as well. Commercial dehumidifiers are used in our workplaces or industries. These air humidifiers are necessary to make sure that our homes are safe and our workplaces as well.
