I lived in the northern area of the country for most of my life.
- I grew up with long winters plus temperatures below zero.
I was accustomed to a brutal windchill plus lots of snowfall. The air was officially dry plus caused issues with chapped lips plus static shock. A powerful gas furnace was essential. Every beach house was equipped with some genre of furnace or boiler but genuinely few bothered with a/c. The summer time season was most often brief plus frequently cold plus rainy. When a job opportunity gave the chance to move south, I took it. I looked forward to trading my wool sweater for T-shirts plus my heavy boots for sandals. I wasn’t sad about the heat. I was legitimately happy to finally have a reason to use a/c. I didn’t realize that the humidity down south is as big of a problem as the lack of humidity up north. While the air conditioner in my modern beach house did a good job of pulling heat out of the air plus creating a cooling effect, it couldn’t handle the high moisture levels. An excess of humidity makes the air recognize hot plus sticky. It promotes the growth of mold, mildew, bacteria plus other harmful contaminants. I needed a dehumidifier. I started out purchasing a portable model, however I couldn’t keep up with emptying the reservoir. I then called an Heating as well as Air Conditioning corporation plus had a whole-beach house dehumidifier installed. The unit pulls moisture out of the air as it passes through the cooling system, maintaining ideal moisture levels plus creating a much more comfortable home. Plus, it allows myself and others to set the thermostat just a bit higher plus save some currency on biweekly electric bills.
