What is a dehumidifier and why do you need one?

Dave talks with Travis Rasch, Product Manager for Fresh Air Systems and Dehumidification, about dehumidifiers. 

Did you know that an air conditioner's job is to cool the air, not remove humidity? And did you know that if you're trying to remove humidity wiht your air conditioner you're likely spending a lot more money on your energy bill than you should be?

If you have questions about how to get rid of the humidity in your home or want us to cover more topics related to humidity and its impact on your home and quality of life, send us an email at freshair@broan.com and we'll cover it in an upcoming episode.

What is Overture? 

Managing indoor air quality can be complicated. Do you know when you should turn on your bath fan and for how long it should run when you shower? Most people don't, so we created a fully automated system, called Overture, that takes the guesswork out of giving your home fresh air. Taz Khalil joins Dave to explain how Overture works its magic.
