AVS vs. Dehumidifier
Advanced Ventilation System vs. Dehumidifier
Consumers have primarily utilized dehumidifiers as a means of lowering indoor moisture levels. The fact remains that dehumidifiers are extremely costly to run, require daily maintenance, do not address the issue of ventilation and air exchange, recycle the same stale air again and again, and scariest of all, they can overheat and cause a fire. In fact according to the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission, at least 1.5 million dehumidifiers were recalled in 2002 for this reason alone.
AVS beats standard dehumidifiers on every level. AVS is not only 90% less expensive to run, you get the added benefit of a continuous air exchange for improved air quality, and the reduction of risks associated with moisture and mold.
- Even on high, AVS uses only 38 watts.
- The average monthly cost is only $2 per month in electricity versus an average of $36 for a dehumidifier.
- AVS saves $400 a year over just one dehumidifier.
- With our 10-year warranty that's a savings of over $4,000.
AVS provides homeowners with year round moisture control that is safe, cost effective and maintenance free - with no buckets of water to empty or filters to clean. The AVS system monitors the indoor environment 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, for non-stop, humidity control - even when the homeowner is away for long periods of time. A quiet powerful fan draws in moisture, toxins and pollutants while safely expelling them to the outdoors.
