Create a More Comfortable Home with a Dehumidifier
Reduce the level of humidity in the air on hot, Minnesota summer days.

A Dehumidifier Serves Two Purposes

There are two very good reason to consider purchasing a dehumidifier for your Twin Cities, MN home. First, a humidifier will make your home more comfortable by removing moisture from the air. In the Minneapolis/St. Paul as well as most of Minnesota, we have very high humidity levels during summer months. This is caused primarily because of the 10,000 lakes we have. Secondly, humid climates can cause mold and mildew to grow inside homes, which pose various health risks.

Air Conditioners and Dehumidifiers

You may already have a dehumidifier and you don't even realize it. If you have an air conditioner, whether a window unit or a central air conditioner, you have a dehumidifier. Wikipedia puts it this way' "Air conditioners automatically act as dehumidifiers when they chill the air and thus need to handle the accumulated water as well. Newer window units use the condensing coil and fan to evaporate the accumulated water into the outdoor air, while older units simply allow the water to drip outside. Central air conditioning units need to be connected to a drain."
