Humidity Control

SaniDry™ Basement Air System is a powerful and effective dehumidifier - big enough to do the job of keeping your wet basement dry. In fact, the SaniDry™ can even address a basement as large as 2,500 sq ft. The SaniDry™ will take three times the water out of the air as a typical dehumidifier, yet uses the same energy, and has no messy pan to empty. Keeping humidity down helps control moisture and reduces the chances for mold to grow. In general, mold will not grow at less than 50% relative humidity, and the SaniDry™ will help keep your basement below 50% relative humidity. Of course, any groundwater, plumbing or other leaks should be fixed, as part of a strategy to eliminate mold.

Dehumidifiers are essential to keep the level of moisture down in your basement. Just because there is no water in your basement doesn't mean that there is no mold. Any moisture level above 50% will allow mold to grow. The SaniDry will always keep your basement humidity at a safe level.

The SaniDry is equipped with a strong blower which will help to move dry air through your basement, bringing the moisture from your entire basement into the filter. It will not only dry the basement, but it will dry the structure itself and the contents as well. The damp smell that lurks in your basement will vanish along with the moisture. It makes a big difference during the summer, and we get many compliments about odors being eliminated.

As we said, you will never have to mess with a drain pan in your SaniDry. It automatically drains to your drainage system and the water is eliminated through your sump pump so that you won't have to clean it. It truly is the crowning jewel of your basement waterproofing system that makes sure that your home is safe and dry forever.
