Can You Use A Dehumidifier And An Air Conditioner Together?

Have you ever wondered if a dehumidifier is necessary during the hot summer months when the air conditioning is turned on? Finding out the answer might actually surprise you.

Midea Breezless air conditioners circulate cool air throughout the house via a network of ducts and registers. The air conditioner draws in warm air and recirculates cool air back into the house. This cooling cycle is repeated until the desired temperature is reached in the home.

Humidity and Air Conditioners

Midea Breezeless Air conditioners also help to dehumidify incoming air. However, if you have a humid basement, then it is recommended to use Dehumidifier, to achieve low humidity or any space where humidity will be most noticeable. 

Whether the basement is finished or unfinished, it will become humid regardless of whether the air conditioner is turned on. 

Since,  the relationship between heat and moisture, your Midea Air conditioner requires an ally to work more efficiently in maintaining a comfortable temperature in your home. Running a dehumidifier in your air-conditioned home will reduce your overall energy consumption because the dehumidifier makes it easier to remove moisture, allowing your air conditioner to cool your home faster.

Advantages of running Dehumidifier and AC together 

Using dehumidifiers along with Midea Breezless during the hot summer months can provide numerous benefits because proper humidity levels not only keep you comfortable, but also keep your home safer. Your furnishings are protected because there is no musty odor on your upholstery and no paint peeling from the added moisture. You and your family will be healthier because your skin will be free of stickiness, allergies will be reduced, and your home will not become a breeding ground for dust mites.

Mold is every homeowner's worst nightmare, appearing when two conditions are met: moisture and a surface to grow on. Running a Midea Breezeless Air Conditioner can alone fight against mold invading your home. But if you live in cold regions where AC is providing the comfortable warm temperature in your room can sometimes be the ideal environment for mold to grow, in such cases dehumidifiers can significantly reduce the likelihood of mold taking hold.

The Perfect Balance

The relative humidity in your home is measured as a gram-per-cubic-meter of water vapor divided by the gram-per-cubic-meter of moisture that the air can maximally hold at the current temperature.

For most spaces, the ideal relative humidity level is to maintain a 45-50 percent split. A relative humidity level of more than 50% can create an unfavorable environment for mold spores to grow, while a relative humidity level of less than 30% can be equally damaging. It can make colds, irritated skin, and respiratory passages more likely. Extreme dryness can cause wood floors to separate.

Contradiction in Energy Efficiency

Although it may appear to be contradictory, an energy-efficient home in a hot, humid climate with added insulation, energy-efficient appliances, and energy-efficient windows reduces the amount of time your air conditioner runs. Isn't that a good thing? Since,  both Midea Brezeless Air Conditioner Midea Dehumidifiers consume low electricity sp you shouldn’t worry about the heavy electricity bill. However if the house is so well insulated against the elements, your air conditioner may only be used occasionally. This is actually a disadvantage because there is no active dehumidification during the hours when your house is not actively cooling. Because of this phenomenon, the indoor relative humidity in your home will rise. 

And moreover, you can easily monitor or determine the current humidity level of your home due to mobile phone control features available in Midea Breezeles, which will measure the humidity level of your home easily and automatically. 

So, the answer to the question, "Do I Need a Dehumidifier if I Have Air Conditioning?" is a resounding yes, because using both appliances will create the ideal environment for you and your family. Hence, by supplementing your air conditioner with a dehumidifier, your home will achieve the best results possible.
