Home Dehumidifier: Portable and Small
Dehumidifiers

Remove mold, mildew, dust mites and bacteria
with a small dehumidifier that keeps your room comfortable &
dry...
Hot, humid,
muggy weather is uncomfortable for us, but is perfect for biological
contaminants like dust mites, fungus and
bacteria. A musty smell is a sure sign you need a dehumidifier.
Check every closet, bathroom and room for humid, enclosed areas with
poor ventilation. The laundry area is a common home for
molds. Fungus and mold colonize small areas and send out
invisible spores that continuously travel throughout the
home. A portable dehumidifier
will kill existing mold and prevent new by removing its water
source. Wash away any visible mold and aim a
small room dehumidifier to blow toward the problem
area. See below or

Importance of Portable Dehumidifiers in Controlling
Mold & Mildew in Your Home
|
|
Molds
such as fungus mold, black
mold, and slime molds are
most often found in areas that have high humidity levels such as
bathrooms, kitchens, laundry rooms or damp basements (especially after
flooding). It is important to try and prevent mold and mildew
growth .
Because mold and mildew release mold
spores in the air that can float throughout the house, severe allergic
reactions such as watery eyes, runny nose and sneezing, nasal
congestion and fatigue, can occur. When mold starts to reproduce inside
your home, it can eat away at the structure, causing thousands of
dollars in damage and possibly making your family sick due to mold
exposure. There are several mold cleaning, prevention, and mold removal
methods to deal with this persistent problem. One of the preventative
measures is arming yourself with small portable dehumidifier.
Related
information on problems associated with mold growth in your home can be
found on the California
Department of Health Services Indoor Air Quality Info Sheet.

More Tips On Saving Money By Using Small or
Portable Dehumidifiers ...
|
|
Using a small dehumidifier
in your home or office environment can extend the life of your heating
and a/c units. Heating and a/c units are constantly competing
with humidity when trying to regulate
temperature, thus causing higher electricity and gas bills. A
portable dehumidifier
uses around the same amount of energy as a light bulb and can
help lower your heating and a/c bills .
Small dehumidifiers
will work most effectively and efficiently in an enclosed area with all
windows and doors closed. Your dehumidifier is designed to operate on
ordinary household 110/120 volt 60-cycle alternating current. A 15 or
20 ampere fused separate circuit, serving only this appliance is
required.
Best Placement for Small Dehumidifiers:
When placing the dehumidifier, be sure that it is located so there is
no blockage to air flowing either into the coils at the rear
or from the front grille. For the best performance
from your dehumidifier, allow at least 12 inches of air space on the
front and back-side of the unit.

Important Questions To Answer Before Choosing a
Small Dehumidifier
|
|
What are the dimensions of the room to be
dehumidified (width, length and ceiling height)?
How many people will be in the room most of the time?
Do you have mold in this room?
Do you use air conditioning in this room?
Is the room carpeted?
Do you usually open the windows in this room?
What is the area mainly used for (ex.: storage, recreation room, home
office)?
If for storage, what types of items are stored there (rare books,
pictures, regular household out of season items, etc.)
Were you looking for dehumidifiers with a container to drain or
dehumidifiers that could drain the water via PVC tubing to another area?
