Aprilaire Ventilating Dehumidifier is Single Solution for Multitude of IAQ Problems
The Aprilaire Ventilating Dehumidifier (E100V + 8190FF) combines two Indoor Air Quality solutions-Aprilaire’s new Model E100V e-series Dehumidifier and patent-pending ventilation control-into one simple machine for effective virus protection, balanced humidity, and energy efficiency.
Ventilating Dehumidifier – Filter Out Airborne Contaminants
A basement or crawl space is a perfect environment for Indoor Air Quality issues to surface. Many people use these two spaces as storage for paints and other chemicals. Without fresh air ventilation, these volatile organic compounds can create major health issues. Not only are you at risk when you’re down in your basement or crawl space, but this contaminated air will also move up into the main areas of your home.
Pest-Related Concerns in Basements and Crawl Spaces
A basement or crawl space can also be the perfect landing spot for pests, which carry plenty of harmful diseases as well as trigger asthma and allergies, and can be especially problematic for children, the elderly, and the immunocompromised.
Mechanism of the Ventilating Dehumidifier
Mechanical ventilation works by pushing out your basement or crawl space’s contaminated air and bringing in freshly filtered air from the outside. As the Ventilating Dehumidifier brings in outdoor air, it is pushed through an Aprilaire MERV 8 filter to clear out any contaminants.
Benefits of Fresh Air Ventilation
This simultaneous process dilutes the infected aerosols indoors by replacing the stagnant, stale air with fresh, clean air. With fresh air ventilation, you can breathe easy knowing that your basement, crawl space, and home’s air is clean and healthy.
Radon
Radon is the second leading cause of lung cancer behind smoking. It is considered a serious issue across the United States, and can come up through the ground and into your home through cracks in the foundation.
