"Mack and Aaron were both EXTREMELY helpful, knowledgable, professional, polite and concerned about cleaniness (and we appreciated all those postive characteristics!). Really excellent professionals who serviced our furnance and installed a new thermostat that is really nice. We cannot recommend Schaal highly enough and Mack and Aarson were really, really good to work with. If you are seeing this and considering an HVAC company, there is no other choice than Schaal! (We have used Schaal since the early 1990s and always been totally pleased with their service, technicians and people who answer the phones!)."

"The work was performed the next day after I called. The technician covered his shoes and protected my home while working. The system is running really well now. The tech also checked the entire system to make sure that it is working and whether or not I had any concerns. Two items in the air conditioner needed replacing."

"We hired Neighbors to replace our furnace and air conditioner and we have been very happy with how it all turned out. Neighbors was the one provider who showed me their load calculations, and they quoted a few different equipment options. Their quote also showed the model numbers of the equipment so I could do research and compare my options. From the estimator to the install team to the start-up tech, everyone was courteous, prompt, and extremely competent. I highly recommend their services if you are in the market for a new furnace and air conditioner. We love our new system and the energy and cost-savings it provides."

"When we discussed the project I made it clear that I was dissatisfied with how the original contractor used flexible plastic ductwork instead of galvanized metal. Despite this, Lane replaced the ductwork with the same product. I was concerned that rodent damage would cause the same problem again so I had him add a metal pan under the ductwork to protect it. This added $200 to the job that ended up over $700. I think the job was easier than either of us expected it would be. I was under some pressure to get it done and done correctly, which it was, but I think it was a little more expensive than it would have been had I gotten competitive bids. I am otherwise satisfied with how it turned out. He did a good job and I don’t expect further problems."

FAQs for central humidifier installation and replacement projects in Altoona, IA

A crawl space dehumidifier is a worthwhile investment, particularly in humid climates or if you've noticed musty odors, mold growth, or wood deterioration. Though costs range from $3,000 to $9,200, this investment helps prevent structural damage that could require far more expensive repairs later. Beyond structural protection, a properly dehumidified crawl space contributes to better overall indoor air quality and may reduce allergens throughout your home. Consider having a professional assessment to determine if your specific situation warrants this investment.

Addressing crawl space moisture effectively often requires a combination of solutions. A complete approach includes encapsulation plus dehumidifier installation. For minor moisture issues, a basic dehumidifier starting at $1,500 may suffice, while severe problems in larger spaces could require systems costing up to $14,000. The most effective moisture control strategy depends on your specific conditions, making a professional assessment valuable for determining the most cost-effective approach for your situation.

For a crawl space measuring 1,500 square feet, you'll need a dehumidifier with a daily capacity of 30 to 50 pints, with unit costs ranging from $150 to $600. Your local climate and existing moisture levels may necessitate adjusting this capacity—homes in particularly humid regions might benefit from higher-capacity units. Professional installers can measure your specific humidity conditions and recommend equipment that is appropriately sized, balancing initial cost with operating efficiency for your unique situation.

Crawl space dehumidifiers add $300 to $500 to your annual electricity expenses when operating continuously. Energy-efficient models reduce this consumption by roughly 15 to 30% compared to standard units. Most contemporary dehumidifiers feature humidity sensors that automatically cycle operation based on current conditions, helping manage energy usage. Proper crawl space encapsulation significantly improves efficiency by creating a controlled environment that requires less dehumidifier runtime, thereby reducing ongoing electricity costs.
