Throughout the summer months, you rely on your air conditioner to cool your home, office, or workspace. It is a must in order to get through the high temperature days where a fan just won’t cut it.

But if one day you notice a musty odor, moist air, or foggy windows, you may have a problem. And the culprit is likely humidity.

While air conditioners already remove some water vapor from the air, that is not their main job. If humidity levels are excessive, you may be placing undue pressure on your air conditioning system, putting it at risk for damage or other issues.

Whether we are working in offices, hanging out at home, or in the car, much of the air we breathe during the day is from an inside space.

Given these facts, the topic of indoor air quality is of particular importance to home dwellers, as poor air quality can cause allergic reactions, respiratory issues, asthmatic irritation, or other health problems. Even if you don’t have allergies or a sensitivity to dust and dirt in the air, it is worth taking measures to ensure that you are breathing the cleanest air possible for the sake of your health and that of those around you. Poor air quality can also cause issues with home items including floors, wood furniture, and more.

Do you live in a city where price per square footage is costly? Or do you have a small home with little interior room to spare for major appliances?

When it comes to installing HVAC systems in locations where space is minimal, it can be tricky business. Most of the time you need to have plenty of floor space dedicated to the units that will be placed inside the home in addition to the outdoor ones. Packaged HVAC units help with this problem by streamlining this process into one primary unit –– saving you space while still delivering on your air conditioning (and/or heating) needs.
