Whole-House Dehumidifiers in Richmond, TX

If your Richmond home feels sticky even with the thermostat set comfortably, a whole-house dehumidifier can control humidity independently of the air conditioner. We install whole-house dehumidifiers and keep them running with regular service. Lazarine AC works out of nearby Missouri City and serves homeowners in Richmond.

Inside a whole-house dehumidifier

It handles moisture on its own schedule.

• The dehumidifier treats air for the whole house by working through your existing duct system.
• It does not need the AC to be cooling, which means it can dry the air without over-cooling the house.
• Water it collects is drained away, unlike a portable unit you have to empty.

Signs your home holds too much moisture

Watch for these.

• Mildew spots on walls, ceilings or around windows.
• You keep lowering the thermostat to feel comfortable.
• Wood doors that swell or stick in humid weather.
• A damp feel to the air on mild days when the AC barely runs.

In Richmond, spring and fall bring plenty of days that are humid but not hot, and that is when an AC cycles too little to dry the air. A humidity problem can start with the air conditioner, so we look there before recommending a dehumidifier.

Working with Lazarine AC

We check the air conditioner, the ducts and the house together before suggesting an add-on. You will have a free written estimate in hand before any equipment is installed. Both the HVAC and electrical sides are covered by our Texas licenses, HVAC 60717E and electrical 17283.

We begin by inspecting the equipment you have and asking what you have noticed about the air in your home. Like any HVAC equipment, a dehumidifier needs periodic service, including filter changes and a check of the drain line.
