High humidity levels are one of the most common problems facing a Middle Tennessee home. Not only can excess moisture in your house create an unpleasant stale air smell and make everything feel sticky and uncomfortable in the middle of the summer, but damp indoor conditions can lead to mold-like conditions and fungal growth.

Are you suffering from any of the following?

• A damp or wet crawlspace
• Sweating ductwork
• Indoor fungal or mold-like growth

Those are all signs that your Murfreesboro, Franklin, or greater Nashville area home could benefit from humidity control services.

What Causes Humidity Issues in a Home?

1. Insufficient Ventilation
2. Unmanaged Crawlspaces and Basements
3. Air Leaks in Your Home’s Exterior
4. Condensation from Leaking Ductwork 

Fungal Growth Can Create Health Issues in Your Home 

Humidity and moisture in a house can lead to fungal and mold growth on your walls, or in your crawlspace or attic. This can create a number of physical health issues for you and your family, including:

• Allergy-like symptoms
• Sneezing, runny nose, and red eyes
• Asthma

Control Your Indoor Humidity with Dehumidification Services

Dealing with existing fungal growth or clean-up of mold-like substances in your house is only part of the solution. Home Energy Professionals can help you identify the underlying causes of moisture and humidity inside your house, and recommend the best way to address the issue, including:

Air sealing helps prevent humid air from entering your living space through cracks and gaps in your home’s exterior.

Heating and cooling systems like central AC, heat pumps, and dehumidifiers help remove moisture from the air in your home.

Crawlspace encapsulation seals off and waterproofs your crawlspace, which is where moisture issues in many homes originate.

Duct sealing reduces heating and cooling waste and avoids condensation and moisture creation from your HVAC system.
