Re:DEHUMIDIFIERS
I'm still waiting for a dehumidifier that doesn't make the room unbearably hot.

Re:DEHUMIDIFIERS
I am using a Whirlpool portable model that lets you control the fan speed and humidity and I love it. Keeps my house at 50% or less (running 20 tanks) and I never have a problem with excess heat from it. I got lucky when I bought it, I was looking around the thrift stores and found if for $10.00.

Re:DEHUMIDIFIERS
Aloha Les, the brand I use is Goldstar. I purchased it at Wal Mart for approx $175. I like the heat that is emitted from dehumidifiers as it keeps the room warm therefore the individual tank heaters dont come as often. Also coming from a warm climate to Nebraska allows me to think I am back home, you know with the sound of the water flowing and the heat. All I need now are the hula dancers and the sand.

Re:DEHUMIDIFIERS
You should look into an Air Exchanger ... an Air Exchanger brings in fresh (drier) air from the outside and expells the stale humid air. Most have a built in heat exchange so you loss only a % of the heat in the air.
I have one ... it's working real well at the moment ... my room temperature is about 70. About 90% of the moisture is expelled. When I shut down the AE during the past cold spells (a week of under 10 degrees), the room became VERY wet ... I can see and feel the difference.

Re:DEHUMIDIFIERS
I bought a Kenmore through Ebay. There are some pretty good prices through Ebay. I think that it's a good investment. Keeps the air drier and mold from growing, keeps the room warmer, and makes the room smell a lot better. The musty smell can get into everything in storage in the garage or room. Putting covers on all the tanks and having a dehumidifier really helped me with humidity issues in the Winter. I was suprised at the amount of water that was removed from the air. Summer here is hot/warm and dry, so I don't use the dehumidifier in the Summer.
HTH.
