Excessive humidity is rarely a good thing – it makes the home uncomfortable and miserable to live in.

The problem with portable dehumidifiers is that they can only work in the rooms they are in – What about the rest of the home? With a Honeywell Whole House Dehumidifier the entire home will be dehumidified because the entire unit is installed in the heating or cooling system.

One of the most successful models by Honeywell is the DH90. Not to get too technical, but to put it in simple terms – it filters air enabling you to breathe better. 85% of the air is filtered – which will remove unwanted air-born particles, mold spores, pollen and general allergens. Air travels through the dehumidifier and creates fresh, clean air that is breathable.

Some of the technical features that are included in the Honeywell DH90 are:

6.2 amps for energy efficiency (33% more energy efficient the leading competitors
filters 90 pints per day provides MERV 11 filtration and includes a W8150 Fresh Air Ventilation Controller and H8908C Dehumidistat, 6″ fresh air and 10″ indoor inlet collars:

- 3/4″ expanded polystyrene foam insulation.
- 115 volt with ground from a 15 amp circuit.
- optional EARD6 damper.
- powered by a 7.5′ factory power cord.

The W8150 Ventilation Controller will determine the amount of ventilation necessary depending on how many rooms are in the home and large they are. The unit uses a R22 refrigerant also.

Installation is ideal for a crawlspace, attic, basement and the unit should preferably be installed next to a concentrate drain where water can be siphoned off. The unit can be installed as a stand alone as long as a drain is in the area.

If you are serious about changing the humidity levels in your home – look no further then the Honeywell DH90. Homeowners will not be disappointed. Finally the Honeywell DS90 meets the standards of the American Lung Association Health House Guidelines.
