Dehumidifiers are a southern family's best friend!

Stopping MOLD from growing in your Horry or Georgetown County home can sometimes feel like a full-time job!

There are probably not too many people that let mold grow in their home on purpose. But when you use materials like wood that are porous and living in South Carolina with all the moisture in the air, it can sometimes happen.

Here is a tip to eliminate the chances of mold taking up residence in your Grand Strand home!

Use A Dehumidifier.

If you have a smaller home and your excess moisture is coming from a covered crawl space or basement, a bigger dehumidifier unit running in your basement or crawl space could help keep your humidity levels under control. The best humidity levels for limiting mold growth should be below 50% but don't go below 30%for other health reasons.

Smaller units are available as well for individual rooms but again monitor that moisture!
