Excessive humidity in water treatment plants causes dangerous pipe sweating and costly corrosion. Learn how the Adams County Regional Water District solved its condensation issues by implementing professional dehumidification systems. Discover why Midwest plants face unique moisture challenges and how controlling humidity levels protects infrastructure, reduces maintenance labor, and saves significant annual facility budgets.

Dirty filters and static pressure often cause commercial dehumidifiers to lose performance, leading to unwanted humidity fluctuations. Quest engineers solved this by integrating a pressure switch with a variable speed fan in the new Quest 335. This system automatically adjusts airflow to ensure consistent, precise humidity control despite clogged filters or complex ductwork.

Discover the Quest 335, the world’s most efficient dehumidifier. Engineered with innovative multi-coil technology and a variable speed fan, this unit optimizes performance even under static pressure. Learn how our latest release removes 335 pints of water daily while slashing operational costs for cultivators and facility managers by thousands of dollars over five years.

Climate control is critical for cannabis cultivators, but dirty filters and improper ductwork often hinder commercial dehumidifier performance. Clogged filters restrict airflow, while poor duct design increases static pressure, leading to humidity fluctuations. Learn how to optimize your setup through regular maintenance and smart engineering to ensure a consistent and successful growing environment.

Indoor cannabis cultivation requires more than just bricks and mortar to ensure consistent, high-yield crops. Growers must implement sophisticated environmental controls to manage humidity, temperature, and external contaminants. By leveraging data-driven strategies and advanced dehumidification technology, facilities like Nimbus Cannabis are optimizing their space, maximizing canopy size, and maintaining strict product quality standards.

For years, the HVAC industry has relied on reheat to remove humidity, leading to skyrocketing energy costs and inconsistent climate control. In this episode of Dansplainin, Quest applications engineer Dan Dettmers explains why this outdated approach falls short and how stand-alone dehumidifiers provide a superior, more efficient solution for modern facilities facing increased ventilation needs.

Struggling with inconsistent humidity levels in your facility? Often, the culprit is an improperly sized HVAC system. Whether your evaporator coil is too small to handle the moisture or too large to run long enough for dehumidification, poor sizing impacts your relative humidity. Learn how to diagnose these common AC issues and potential solutions.

Getting at how much humidity control you need isn’t the international man of environmental control mystery, like many of us think. In fact, how to properly size your dehumidifiers is relatively straightforward IF you have the necessary data.
