VII. TIPS ON WHEN TO USE YOUR PORTABLE DEHUMIDIFIER
If you have respiratory problems, asthma and allergies, your Whynter RPD-302W portable dehumid-
ifier is a great option for controlling moist environments. Creating dry air can keep indoor air pollu-
tants at a more manageable level, especially when used in conjunction with an air purifier. Using
your portable dehumidifier can help you save money in the long run because it uses relatively little
power and can help furnaces and air conditioners operate more efficiently.
1. Excess moisture
Indoor environments with excessive moisture can cause mold and fungus to thrive inside
the walls and beneath the carpet. Many types of mold are potentially dangerous and can lead to
health problems. The Whynter RPD-302W portable dehumidifier reduces the amount of moisture in
the air inside a home, which makes it far more difficult for harmful mold to grow. This portable dehu-
midifier is also effective for a small area, such as a hallway or a child's bedroom.
2. Respiratory problems or allergies
If your home is musty, you will want to use your Whynter RPD-302W portable dehumidifier,
especially if you have respiratory trouble or allergies. This unit can also help relieve symptoms by
controlling the relative humidity inside your home and a good idea in general if your home has such
underlying problems as a leaky foundation walls or inadequate ventilation or if you live in a humid
area. By keeping the relative humidity indoors below 50 percent, you can keep allergy-inducing dust
mites and mold from thriving.
3. Basements
If you have a basement that is below-grade, you should use your Whynter RPD-302W port-
able dehumidifier. This dehumidifier will help you keep the moisture levels in your basement down to
manageable levels. By doing this, you can help keep your indoor furnace operating efficiently and
even help eliminate minor standing-water problems. Your portable dehumidifier also can help keep
furniture and valuables dry, and it will help keep electronics in proper working order.
4. Humid climates
In humid climates, such as areas near a beach or large body of water, your Whynter RPD-
302W portable dehumidifier can help keep the environment in your home at a more comfortable lev-
el. While the actual temperature won't be affected, you'll sleep more comfortably and may actually
save money, since your unit can keep the indoor humidity and, thus, your thermostat under control.
