Dehumidify for Health

By eliminating excess moisture and maintaining relative humidity below 60% the survival rate of airborne viruses and formation of bacteria, fungi, and dust mites are minimized helping to reduce the incidence of respiratory infections and symptoms associated with allergies and asthma.*

*E.M. Sterling, “Criteria for Human Exposure to Humidity in Occupied Building,” ASHRAE Winter Meeting, 1985

Dehumidify for Comfort

Excess moisture in your home can be obvious. You might smell it in the form of musty odors. You might see it in the form of mold and mildew. You might even feel it in the form of sweat or clamminess.

Dehumidify for Preservation

Maintaining the proper humidity level can help preserve wood floors, cabinetry, furnishings, musical instruments, and anything else susceptible to warping, cracking, or other damage due to significant changes in humidity or high humidity levels in the air.

    Outstanding! It does what it is supposed to do and it does it very well.
    In Middle Tennessee, our summers have a constant “fog” of high humidity.We used to have a stand-alone dehumidifier in our living space.But, without a drain, it was a constant pain to empty the reservoir at least twice per day.And the noise of the stand-alone de-humidifier polluted our peace.A whole-house dehumidifier solved our problems.I installed our Aprilaire 1830 de-humidifier next to my air handling unit.I followed the instructions in the Installation Manual and after a couple of phone calls to Aprilaire for clarification on a couple of issues, it's done.I suspended the dehumidifier with chains, hooks, eyebolts, and springs bought at my local box store. I also installed vibration pads under the feet. The place in the attic where this is located is directly over a bedroom. But, while in the bedroom, while it is running, there is no sound heard whatsoever.This DH is controlled by the Aprilaire 8920W thermostat located in the living area and when the thermostat calls for dehumidification, both the DH and the air handling unit fan turn on at the same time.Our RH setpoint is 50% and this unit does a particularly good job of maintaining the RH% to that setpoint.The DH is well made, and I am incredibly pleased with it thus far.UPDATE MAY 23, 2021The longer we have our Aprilaire 1830 De-humidifier, the more I am convinced that investing in it was one of the best purchases I have ever made.It just works, and it works well. Yesterday was a typical hot and humid day. It was 88 degrees outside and the outside RH% was 87%. But, inside of our home, the RH% was 50% all day. This is typical of how our RH% is controlled every day in warm weather.And after using this for about a year, we have discovered that air that is less humid does not need to be as cold as the air that has high humidity to feel comfortable. Since our indoor RH% never exceeds 50% we have been able to raise the set-point of our thermostat cooling temperature UP 2 degrees. This directly translates to lower electric bills. It cost much less to run an 1830 de-humidifier and keep the RH% at 50% than it does to cool air that has high RH% and is 2 degrees cooler.

    Very easy to install

    Great for basement, do not need to hook up to ventulation system. I installed it as a standalone unit. Humidity levels dropped significantly in 24 hours.

    Only dislike is that the owners manual is weak
