Humidity makes the atmosphere outside or inside seem hotter than the temperature actually measures. This occurs because humid air feels heavier and causes our bodies to feel sticky and sweaty. Few people enjoy humidity any time of the day, especially when attempting to sleep. A dehumidifier device pulls air in, removes moisture and circulates the air back into the area at a slightly higher temperature than before. While dehumidifiers circulate hotter air back into the room, the reduction in air humidity makes the air feel cooler.
Instructions
1. Install the dehumidifier properly in the bedroom. For the safest and most successful use, read the directions included with the dehumidifier and install the device accordingly. Ensure that you connect a drainage hose to the dehumidifier, if possible, to prevent floor damage from the dripping device.
2. Clean the dehumidifier on a regular basis to prevent damage to your floors and to prevent illnesses and allergy and sinus problems. Follow official directions in an owner's manual to take the device apart to clean or replace filters on the recommended schedule. Empty the contents of the dehumidifiers water collection bin at the beginning of each use to prevent the device from overflowing onto your floors.
3. Turn off the dehumidifier when sleeping or staying in the room for a long period of time. The dehumidifier does not just dry the air; it may also cause dry skin and painful drying of your sinuses that may lead to breathing problems in addition to illness. Run the dehumidifier for only short periods of time when you or a family member use the bedroom for sleeping, studying or other activities.
4. Run an air conditioner simultaneously with the dehumidifier during the summer months when you want to keep the bedroom cool. Air conditioner systems and window units allow some moisture to enter the room's air, but the dehumidifier will take care of this while the air conditioner counter-balances the heated air produced by the dehumidifier.
