Keep π It π Dry π!
Do we really need dehumidifiers when weβve got VRF units? How do dehumidifiers work? Why do we need dehumidifiers now when weβve never had them before? These are valid questions that deserve scientific answers and weβre here to dig in. Join Kristof as he interviews David Treleven and Nikki Krueger of Madison Industries (makers of dehumidifiers, ERVs, and many other innovative indoor air quality products).
