You need to provide dehumidification capacity for three air changes per hour (ACH).
- Volume = 100 x 50 x 50 = 250,000 cu. ft.
- SCFM = 250,000 / 60 = 4,167 SCFM.
- Dehumidification capacity = 4,167 SCFM x 3 ACH = 12,501 SCFM.
Where is best place for dehumidifier?
The best place to put a dehumidifier is in the location closest to the source of the moisture. In multi-level homes, this means that dehumidifiers should most often be placed in basements or upstairs close to the stairs to your basement. This is because the basement is the most humid place in your home.
Can a dehumidifier be too large?
Dehumidifiers can indeed be too big for a space within your home. Having a bigger dehumidifier than the area requires means your electricity is working harder than it should.
Will a dehumidifier make a room cooler?
