Solutions for High Humidity

Keeping comfortable is no sweat with Lennox cooling products.

Day in, day out, nothing works as hard as your heat pump or air conditioner. But even a hard-working cooling system needs help to keep you comfortable when the humidity is high. That's because high humidity makes the air seem warmer than it is. Eighty-five degree days can seem unbearable when the humidity starts to climb. That's where we can help. The Lennox Solution for High Humidity is to remove moisture from your home to make you more comfortable.

At Lennox, we realize that each home is different. That's why we make products that are designed to fit your home, your climate, and your lifestyle. Couple this with our exclusive patented* EfficiencyPlus™ comfort control and you get cool customized comfort. That's what you expect from the company you've trusted for more than 100 years.

We do the work so that you don't break a sweat.

How much humidity can the Lennox Solution remove from your home? Let's just say, Lennox products can remove enough moisture in three years to make an Old Faithful eruption look like a lawn sprinkler.

The exact amount of moisture removed from your home depends on the equipment installed, your lifestyle, and how high or low you prefer the humidity level to be. With our easy-to-use indoor control, you're the one in charge of your own comfort -- with fingertip control, unlike other systems that have to be pre-set by the installer.

By being able to adjust the humidity level in your home, you can avoid many health problems that accompany high humidity. More humidity is an open invitation for odors, mold and mildew. The Lennox Solution for High Humidity gives you a choice that you can be more comfortable with.

Lennox lets you beat the heat without getting soaked.

The Lennox Solution for High Humidity can transform your home into a personal comfort zone. It also can save you money. In order to combat high humidity, it's common to turn down the thermostat a few degrees. That makes your home cooler, but not necessarily more comfortable. It also uses more energy. With the Lennox Solution, you can achieve greater comfort without lowering the thermostat. Now that's Lennox value.

Complete comfort from the outside in.
Your home comfort system consists of two major parts. The outside part you already know about because you probably have to mow around it. That's your heat pump or air conditioner. And the inside part is probably hiding in the attic, basement, crawl space or a closet. That's where you'll find your blower coil or furnace. The combination of these two parts is called a "split system."

Your combination is determined largely by what part of the country you live in, what the climate's like, and what source of energy (gas or electric) is available.

An air conditioner is designed to provide cool air and comfort by removing heat and moisture from inside your home and transferring it outdoors.

A heat pump looks and works just like an air conditioner except it has a reversing valve that reverses the flow of refrigerant, letting it extract heat from the outdoors to heat your home in the winter.

And it's the job of the inside part, the blower coil or furnace, to circulate the conditioned air throughout your home.

Lennox makes a wide range of air conditioners, heat pumps, blower coils, and furnaces. Ask your independent Lennox dealer to help you select the right equipment.

We have a flair for moving air.
For better humidity control, even temperatures and quiet performance, consider a variable speed motor in your blower coil or furnace. Instead of either running full speed or not at all as standard blower motors do, a variable speed motor automatically increases or decreases its speed to meet your changing comfort needs.

By varying its speed and, consequently, the airflow, the blower coil or furnace is able to run more quietly and provide more even comfort throughout your home (avoiding those wide temperature swings common with conventional systems). Since it runs on slower speeds, the variable speed blower cleans your indoor air better as it moves the air more slowly across the filter. And, because it also runs longer, it can remove more moisture from your home.


EFFICIENCY PLUS™

Create your own comfort zone with EfficiencyPlustm.

Feeling comfortable in the summer is not just a matter of turning down the thermostat. In areas where relative humidity is high, you also need to remove excess humidity to actually feel more comfortable.

The "brain" of the Lennox Solution for High Humidity is the EfficiencyPlus™ comfort control. With the EfficiencyPlus control, you can adjust the relative humidity in your home to match your desired comfort level, anywhere from 40% to 60%, which is the optimum range.

The EfficiencyPlus control enables your heat pump or air conditioner to better remove excess humidity, as well as cool your home. That way, when the humidity rises, you can create your own personal oasis. It works by controlling the speed of your indoor unit's blower motor in combination with your outdoor unit's compressor speed. For the most effective humidity removal, match the Lennox PowerSaver® two speed heat pump or air conditioner with a variable speed indoor unit. EfficiencyPlus control is compatible with all single speed equipment, but a single speed indoor unit does require an add-on kit.

How effective is the EfficiencyPlus control? Think about this -- it can help remove up to two times more moisture from your home than a conventional system. Beware of other products that claim greater humidity removal. You might be paying more for less.

Our leading-edge technology provides you with customized comfort for the way you live. That way, you're in charge of your own comfort.

QUALITY COMPONENTS

1. The EfficiencyPlus™ comfort control is usually mounted on the wall near your thermostat and is attractively styled to blend in tastefully with your home.

2. The easy to use Lsider Control puts you in charge of your own comfort level. This is much easier than other systems that require a technician to pro-set the equipment at the time of installation.

3. The Status Lights let you know how the control is operating by measuring the difference between the desired humidity you set on the control and the actual humidity. When all the lights are lit to the "max," it means the system is working hard to bring humidity levels down to your chosen set point. When all the lights are off the system has reached your desired humidity level.
