Dehumidifiers

Bassett Services offers the model 1700/1720 Aprilaire Dehumidifer that provides a fast, effective way to dehumidify your entire home.

Wherever you live, the spring, summer and fall seasons can be especially uncomfortable. Your home can feel cold and clammy at times and surfaces you walk over or touch become sticky. You may wake up at night because the house seems stuffy. All of these are symptoms of excess humidity. Too much humidity can also be unhealthy and destructive. It creates an excellent breeding ground for hundreds of types of mold and can severely affect wood floors and other building materials that are susceptible to high levels of humidity.

The Aprilaire model 1700/1720 dehumidifier easily attaches to any forced air ducted heating/cooling system and can also be used as a stand-alone system for smaller moisture laden areas and rooms.

Some of the major benefits of using the Aprilaire whole home dehumidifier are:

  1. Unlike portable room dehumidifers the model 1700/1720 can dehumidify the entire home. And, there is no need to empty the unit of water as the unit has a drain that sends the collected water into the same drain as your air conditioning unit. So you never have to empty the dehumidifier.
  2. The unit is built for any temperature. The use of an advanced Thermostatic expansion valve helps the Model 1700/1720 resist the efficiency-sapping effects of lower temperatures. This helps it to remain effective over a broader range of temperatures than portable dehumidifiers.
  3. The model 1700/1720 has up to 4 times the energy efficiency of typical portables and enough capacity to dehumidify an entire home not just one room.
  4. The model 1700/1720 automatically manages moisture based on your changing conditions, so you don’t need to constantly make changes or empty tanks.
