What is a Dehumidifier?

Paired with Air Movers, our Dehus withstand many mitigation projects.

Dehumidifiers (Dehus) are electronic appliances used to remove moisture, from the air, walls, floors, etc..  They serve greatly in our line of business, especially when we are performing services to remove water.  They do this by increasing the temperature in an affected space, allowing for a speedier drying process.

This advanced drying equipment stabilizes humidity, vaporizing water in the air and materials affected.  Dehus take in moisture, and in turn, put out dry air, eventually ventilating the room and/or space surrounding them.

Dehumidifiers, paired with Air Movers, work very well together in drying out an affected area.  They should run overnight, undisturbed, for at least 24 hours, to up to several days, depending on the size of the affected area.

If you have questions about moisture problem areas in your home or office, call or text SERVPRO of South San Francisco City/ San Bruno at 650-794-1000!
