Efficient basement dehumidification? (self.homeimprovement)

submitted 2 years ago by bbbbb to c/homeimprovement

7 comments fedilink hide all child comments

I have 2 standard freestanding units in my basement and crawlspace running 24/7. I want to get something more energy efficient, will last a while, and that's easy to maintain. I am considering an Aprileaire dehumidifier. Based on this https://www.energystar.gov/productfinder/product/certified-dehumidifiers/results it would appear they have a high efficiency rating. Does anyone have experience with these or recommendations on solutions?

Sizing up is one way to get efficiency. Another is switching to 240volt from 120volt if your unit supports it.
