How Humidifiers and Dehumidifiers Work

It can be difficult to balance indoor humidity if your local climate is especially humid or dry. What’s more, the process of both heating and air conditioning can have an impact on how much humidity is in the air. Whole-house humidity control systems reverse the effects of these outside forces. The design of humidifiers and dehumidifiers are fairly similar, with the main difference being where the moisture is sent.

For humidifiers, water is evaporated by warm air before it enters the HVAC system. Dehumidifiers function in reverse, cooling moist air so it converts back into liquid moisture. Both humidifiers and dehumidifiers are installed near the HVAC system’s ventilation so that it stabilizes moisture across a home or commercial property. It comes with a plumbing connection so that it has quick access to water or drainage.

Whole-house humidifiers are connected to the property’s water main for a constant supply of water it can use as humidity. A few designs make use of the furnace’s blower motor while others depend on their own fan system for evaporation.

A dehumidifier will instead feature a condensate drain system to make sure extracted moisture is completely expelled. It could be stored in a reservoir tank or be sent straight into your sump pump or sewer line. In case it’s draining into a tank, it will need to be periodically emptied.
