What you will learn

• Why is dehumidification important?

• Who needs dehumidification?

• Key features TrueDRY™ product family

- TrueDRY™ DH90- TrueDRY™ DH65

• System Control Solutions

• Installation Applications

• Positioning Dehumidification to Homeowners



• Today’s homes are built tighter to increase energy efficiency. However, tighter homes can limit the natural exchange of indoor and outdoor air leading to poor indoor air quality and leaving excessive humidity trapped inside the home.

Why is Dehumidification Important?

Sources Of Humidity Include:

COOKINGBoiling water and other cooking methods release humidity into the air.

PEOPLEPeople consistently addmoisture into their homethrough breathing andperspiration.

BATHING AND SHOWERING

Bathroom fans can help, but showering and bathing are two primary sources ofexcess moisture.

INFILTRATIONOutside air can cause excess humidity when air seeps through cracks in flooring, electrical outlets and windows.



• Why dehumidify?

- Saves money on utility bills

- Improves comfort

- Protects the home

- Allows full A/C SEER efficiency

- Optimal humidity eliminates environment for bacteria, viruses

• Who needs dehumidification?

- Condensation on walls and windows

- Home smells musty – basement, crawl space

- Uncomfortable sleeping conditions

- Cupped wood flooring

- Allergy sufferers and asthmatics

Dehumidification



Doesn't An Air Conditioner Dehumidify?

• Homeowners are familiar with temperature (sensible heat), but often don’t consider humidity (latent heat) when they feel uncomfortable.

• Most people will either run their air conditioner or turn their thermostat down hoping to be more comfortable. But if there’s excess humidity in the air, they’ll still feel clammy and uncomfortable.

• Attempting to use air conditioning as a way to dehumidify only lowers the SEER (Seasonal Energy Efficiency Rating) of the unit, causing it to run less efficiently, resulting in higher energy costs for the homeowner.

Air conditioners are designed to control temperature, not humidity.



Latent vs. Sensible Heat

• Dehumidification removes Latent Heat

- For moderate temps – A/C isn’t running to remove significant moisture.

- Raining, evening, spring or fall (shoulder seasons).

- Relative Humidity (RH) in the house is lowered so it feels cooler and the thermostat can be turned up.

• A/C System designed for Sensible Heat removal

- Removes some latent heat as a byproduct (80% sensible and 20% latent).

- Out of every $1.00 spent to cool living space roughly $0.80 is spent on the sensible load and $0.20 is spent on the latent load.

• The Dehumidifier takes on the latent load work and allows the A/C to focus on the heat sensed by the thermostat (sensible heat).

- A/C actually achieves the SEER rating it was designed to achieve.



Homeowners with excess humidity in their homes often purchase portable, single-room dehumidifiers that can be noisy and difficult to maintain. Plus, they only remove moisture in the rooms where they’re located.

TrueDRY Dehumidification Systems are integrated, which means they’re more effective and can be less expensive than putting multiple single-room units in a home. Plus, TrueDRY can be installed “out of sight/out of mind” in the central heating and cooling system to provide dehumidification to all rooms in the home.

TrueDRY can also be used as a standalone solution to quietly remove moisture from specific problem areas, improve comfort and eliminate the need for maintenance (such as emptying collection buckets) — all while using less energy compared to most portable dehumidifiers.



Eco-Friendly

Since TrueDRY removes humidity, and air with less moisture feels cooler, ENERGY STAR® estimates that homeowners can save up to six percent on cooling costs for every degree the thermostat is turned up.



Every homeowner is looking for increased comfort and energy efficiency and with Honeywell TrueDRY™ DH90, you can offer both.

Perfect for larger homes, TrueDRY DH90 efficiently removes excessive moisture from the air each day. In addition to dehumidification, TrueDRY DH90 also features an integrated ventilation control that introduces fresh, filtered air into the homes as stale air and excessive moisture is removed.

More Efficiency Through Pre-Core Technology



TrueDRY™ DH65 Dehumidifier

Whether removing moisture evenly from the entire home or focusing specifically on humidity problem areas, the Honeywell TrueDRY™ DH65 provides an integrated solution that operates quietly and efficiently.

TrueDRY DH65 removes more moisture while using less energy than the leading portable dehumidifiers on the market, making it the ideal solution for applications where space is limited and high-performance is critical.




• Can be centrally ducted for whole-house control or operate unducted to address moisture problem areas such as attics or crawl spaces.

• Energy efficient because it removes more moisture (up to 65 pints) using less energy (only 2.02 liter per kilowatt hour).

• Removable side panels and quick-connect duct collars simplify maintenance and service.

• Compact size, only 26"L x 12"H x 12"W

• MERV 11 Filtration

• Uses only 6.2 Amps

• 5 Year Warranty
