Dry, Healthy Air For You and Your Family

MOISTURE/AIR PROBLEMS

The typical family generates a lot of moisture – everyday, commonplace activities such as cleaning, bathing, cooking and even breathing add to indoor moisture levels. This moisture has a tendency to find its way downwards into foundations, permeating the lower levels of dwellings. Even the materials that make up your home, such as concrete and wood, can absorb excess moisture that needs to be dried out.

 Basements and crawl spaces are primary sources of moisture. When water permeates foundation ground and walls, it condenses on these colder surfaces. Cold surfaces in a house will have condensation when warmer air comes into contact with them. This is what happens with cold windows in the wintertime and cold ducts and pipes in the summertime.

 Nowadays, new homes are insulated and sealed so tightly that fresh air exchange is minimal. Without proper ventilation, humid and clammy conditions prevail, nurturing mold spores and dust mites, and ultimately wreaking havoc on your home and health.

 Experts agree that excess moisture can:

 Pose serious long- and short-term health risks such as allergies, respiratory infections, and asthma.

  • Cause costly, irreparable property damage.
  • Absorb and retain dangerous pollutants and gases.
  • Provide a perfect breeding ground for mold to thrive.

The damage caused by excess moisture can be extremely extensive and costly. And in the long run, simple use of dehumidifiers doesn't increase ventilation or cut expense.

 With Humidex, homeowners can be proactive in their approach to protecting their homes and families while enjoying maintenance-free, energy-saving, year-round benefits for about 10 cents a day. For this kind of cost efficiency, you can get crawl space moisture under control and also rid your basement of those musty basement odors.

Testimonials

“In two days all the moisture on my windows was gone. Not only did it take the moisture off the window, the moisture between the window and the storm window was also gone. My wooden windows are now completely dry and I’ve been able to keep them from rotting. In the winter all the moisture I was getting caused two doors to swell so that they were not closing correctly. Believe it or not, the doors are now operating as they should. I also find that my house is staying warmer, I guess that’s from not heating moist air.”

Sincerely,
L.W.
