Indoor Air Quality Services in Austin

You probably also operate your air conditioning system throughout much of the year, and air conditioners dehumidify the air as they cool it. This can result in excessively dry air, though, spurring a number of different problems.

That is why it is so important that you act as soon as possible. To do so, you need to recognize the warning signs of low IAQ. You may notice that people complain of dry, itchy skin, sore throats, or even nosebleeds. All of these may suggest that there is not enough humidity in the air. Also, pay attention to chipping paint, warped wood, and other irregularities such as common electrical shocks. Furthermore, if during the heating season it seems like you cannot comfortably heat your building, a lack of humidity may be to blame.

Signs That You Need a Dehumidifier

There are a lot of warning signs you may notice which can alert you to the need for a dehumidifier. You just have to know what it is that you are looking for. Because humid air holds heat much more effectively than dry air does, you may notice that a humid property is very stuffy and uncomfortably hot. Clearly, this is not an environment conducive to getting much work done, certainly not in a happy way. Plus, dampness can lead to the promotion of mold growth throughout the building, itself a serious problem. With a quality dehumidifier, you can resolve such problems before the major ones set in.

High humidity can also lead to respiratory issues and wood rot, which compromises your furniture. Regardless of what types of problems excessive humidity in your property is causing, we are the company to call.
