FAQs

Why should I install a whole-home dehumidifier in Manchester’s climate?

Manchester experiences mild, damp winters and increasingly humid summers. Excess indoor moisture encourages mould growth, dust-mite activity, musty odours and can damage plaster, timber and electronics. A whole-home dehumidifier extracts this moisture before it circulates through the property, creating a healthier living environment, protecting the building fabric and improving comfort levels all year round.

How does a professionally installed dehumidifier integrate with my existing heating and air-conditioning system?

Our engineers mount the dehumidifier in line with your central ductwork—usually near the air handler or furnace—so it treats the entire air stream. Humid air is pulled from return ducts, moisture is condensed and drained away, and the dried air is delivered back through the supply ducts. We connect the unit to your HVAC controls so it runs only when humidity exceeds your chosen set-point, ensuring seamless, energy-efficient operation alongside your heating and cooling cycles.

What capacity dehumidifier do I need for my property?

Correct sizing depends on floor area, the number of occupants, typical moisture-producing activities (cooking, showering, drying clothes) and building tightness. During a free site survey our technician measures relative humidity, inspects the insulation and calculates the litres-per-day extraction rate required. For most Manchester homes a 40–70 L/day unit is sufficient, while larger or older properties may need 90 L/day or more.

Will the installation disrupt my home and how long does it take?

A standard residential installation takes 4–6 hours. We schedule at your convenience, protect walkways with floor coverings and handle all duct, condensate drain and electrical connections. Because the work is confined to the loft, basement or utility area where your HVAC equipment sits, there is minimal disturbance to living spaces. Once complete we perform a full system test and tidy the workspace before leaving.

What maintenance is required after installation?

Maintenance is straightforward: clean or replace the air filter every 3–6 months, ensure the condensate drain remains clear and have the coil inspected annually. We offer an optional service plan that combines this maintenance with your routine boiler or air-conditioning check, ensuring the dehumidifier runs at peak efficiency and remains within warranty.

Can a dehumidifier lower my energy bills?

Yes. Drier air feels cooler in summer and warmer in winter, allowing you to raise the thermostat in cooling mode or lower it in heating mode by 1–2 °C without sacrificing comfort. This translates to roughly 3–5 % energy savings per degree adjusted. Moreover, balanced humidity helps HVAC equipment run shorter cycles and prevents over-cooling just to remove moisture, further reducing electricity consumption.
