There is no better system to use for home ventilation than a portable dehumidifier. They are small, portable and energy efficient. They produce tremendous amounts of moisture and you are rarely home when they are used. The portable dehumidifiers will reduce the humidity in your home if you have a moderate level of moisture. The reason for this is that they have an airtight or sealed tank which holds or holds air which is forced out through a hose. The water is drained from the tank by pump and pressure and moves to the outside of the tank to be dispersed through the environment. The airtight or sealed tank has a drain port in the bottom and a large bag that the water fills. The bag will seal tightly against the drain port and prevent the water from escaping. When the pump stops pumping water into the bag the water will start draining from the bottom of the tank. It is important that the bag seals tightly against the drain port. If it does not it will keep the water in the bag in the tank and reducing the humidity.
