Dehumidification in the United States

To keep the work focused, we start here: Because of how much water is still in the building, and how much capacity it takes to catch it.

Our field notes give this point special attention: For a damp basement in summer, yes. From the first assessment, we look at this: For a water loss, no, because home units are rated for a few pints per day in comfortable conditions and cannot handle the load.

For your property, the useful point is this: LGR stands for low grain refrigerant. As we organize the work, we account for this: It is a refrigerant dehumidifier with an extra heat exchanger, which lets it keep pulling water out of air that is already fairly dry.

Our field notes give this point special attention: A specialized dehumidifier passes air over silica gel, which absorbs moisture without needing a cold coil.

For a prepared response, we focus on this: It comes from the volume of the affected space in cubic feet and how wet the materials are.

Our technicians plan around this detail: For ordinary materials we generally hold the drying space between about 30 and 50 percent relative humidity.

For your property, the useful point is this: Relative humidity tells you how full the air is compared to what it could hold at that temperature.
