Installing a dehumidifier allows you to control the level of humidity in your crawlspace or basement. A huge benefit of a crawlspace dehumidifier is the influx of fresh indoor air to the first floor of your home. Eventually, the dehumidifier will eliminate odors and dampness from the crawlspace. This will stop the threat of mold or pests. By lowering the humidity level below 60% in your crawlspace, you eliminate the threat of mold growth.
A dehumidifier will also provide better airflow throughout the crawlspace to avoid possible structural issues. It can also lower your energy bills because your HVAC system becomes more energy efficient and requires fewer repairs.

The Environmental Protection Agency suggests that the ideal indoor humidity level for your home or office is roughly 55%. The percentage must be kept below 60% to prevent mold growth. In addition to facilitating mold, a home or office with relative humidity above 60% can also be a breeding ground for pests and wood rot. That is why DryWorx Asheville installs dehumidifiers for customers in naturally damp locations like basements and crawlspaces.
In such areas, a dehumidifier will dry the air, reduce odors, and prevent mold growth. Basement dehumidifiers maintain an ideal indoor relative humidity (RH) level inside your living area. But which dehumidifier is best? That depends on your circumstances. Dehumidifiers come in two sizes: a portable, room-size unit or a whole-house system becomes part of your HVAC system. Both sizes of dehumidifiers work the same way. After you set the desired humidity level on the unit, the dehumidifier kicks on when the humidistat measures a humidity level that’s higher than the set level. At that point, a fan moves the humid air over a cold metal coil, condensing the moisture into water that drains into a bucket or through a drain hose.
This effectively lowers the humidity level by removing humidity from the air. Without question, an electric refrigeration dehumidifier is the most common type of dehumidifier to put in your crawlspace. These units work by drawing moist air over a refrigerated evaporator with a fan. There are three main types of evaporators. They are coiled tube, fin and tube, and microchannel technology. Our crews at DryWorx Asheville can install any of those options in your crawlspace to make your home more comfortable on a year-round basis.
There’s no way to ignore the effects of water on your basement or crawlspace. By installing a dehumidifier, your moisture control issue will be solved. Your basement or crawlspace will be worry-free.
