For people living in New England this summer, humidity has become a regular weather occurrence. In addition to threats for tropical storms, the conditions make the skin feel sticky and even make it difficult to breathe.
To assist with keeping rooms at reasonable temperatures and conditions, dehumidifiers offer a solution. These machines work to remove moisture in the air and prevent mold, dust, and allergens as well as reduce energy consumption. To do so, they pull moisture into the dehumidifier and process it through coils that are cooled with a refrigerant. The result is cooler, drier air.
Recognizing how much moisture has been removed and when the machine should and should not be running requires accurate measurements.
By adding a liquid level switch to your dehumidifier you can provide customers with a more reliable and efficient machine as well as more comfortable living conditions.
Other parts of the country are also battling record hot temps but they are experiencing the opposite and instead dry air wreaking havoc on comfort levels. Humidifiers can be used to add just the right amount of moisture back into the air. As A/Cs are in overdrive cooling spaces, these machines need to accurately release moisture levels in the air. With a level sensor placed inside the machine, you don’t have to worry about the humidifier running constantly or erroneously turning on once the water has run out and causing breakage.
