FAQs
Why is a whole-home dehumidifier important for Georgetownâs climate?
Georgetownâs warm, often humid weather can keep indoor relative humidity above the recommended 30â50 % range for much of the year. Excess moisture promotes mold growth, dust-mite activity, musty odors, and general discomfort. A properly sized, professionally installed dehumidifier removes this excess humidity, protecting your familyâs health, preserving wood floors and furniture, and allowing your air-conditioning system to run more efficientlyâoften lowering energy bills.
How do I know what size dehumidifier my home needs?
Our licensed HVAC technicians perform a detailed load calculation that factors in your homeâs square footage, insulation levels, typical indoor moisture sources (cooking, showers, houseplants, etc.), basement or crawl-space conditions, and the local outdoor design temperatures for Georgetown. Using these measurements, we recommend a unit with the correct pint-per-day removal capacity so you avoid the pitfalls of an undersized unit (poor moisture control) or an oversized unit (short-cycling and higher costs).
What does the installation process involve and how long does it take?
Most whole-home dehumidifier installations are completed in one business day. We begin with a pre-installation inspection, confirm electrical requirements, and select the optimal tie-in point to your existing supply/return ductwork. Our crew then mounts the unit, installs a dedicated condensate drain line or pump, wires the control panel or smart thermostat interface, checks airflow and static pressure, and performs a full system startup. Before we leave, we demonstrate operation, adjust humidity set-points, and clean the work area.
Are your technicians licensed and insured for HVAC and dehumidifier work?
Yes. Every member of our installation team holds a current Texas Air Conditioning and Refrigeration Contractor license (TACLA) and completes ongoing manufacturer training for the dehumidifier brands we carry. We also maintain full liability and workersâ compensation insurance for your protection. Copies of licenses and certificates are available upon request, and all work is backed by our 100 % satisfaction guarantee.
Can a dehumidifier be integrated with my existing HVAC system?
Absolutely. The units we install are designed to connect directly to your homeâs central ductwork, allowing them to pull moist air from the return side, remove humidity, and deliver conditioned air back into the supply plenum. We can also set up a stand-alone configuration for basements, crawl spaces, or homes without ductwork. Integration does not interfere with heating or cooling operation; instead, it often reduces AC runtime because dry air feels cooler at higher temperatures.
What maintenance does a dehumidifier require after installation?
Maintenance is minimal but essential for peak performance and warranty compliance. We recommend the following: (1) replace or clean the dehumidifierâs air filter every 3â6 months; (2) have the evaporator coil and condensate pan inspected and cleaned annually; (3) verify that the drain line remains unobstructed; and (4) check humidity set-points each season. You can handle basic filter changes yourself, or enroll in our biannual preventive-maintenance plan, which includes a full dehumidifier tune-up along with your HVAC system service.
