Honeywell Dehumidifiers
Honeywell is a very interesting brand in the dehumidifier industry as they have yet to gain much market share in the dehumidifier industry. Although they have some whole house dehumidifier units, their production when it comes to home dehumidifiers is not really what you would expect relative to the number of products that they make. Considering that Honeywell is such a huge name in related products like air purifiers and heaters, it's very likely that Honeywell will make a major move into the dehumidifier market at some point in the near future.
As of the writing of this brand overview, Honeywell's products generally include dehumidifiers like the Honeywell DH150A105 TrueDry Whole House Dehumidifier. This dehumidifier is a whole house dehumidifier so it requires an internal duct system within your house. Although this is essentially the best form of dehumidification that you can get available on the residential market, the vast majority of people do not have the duct system already installed.
Essentially Honeywell dehumidifiers at this point in time are really going to be a major pain to install yourself. However as a replacement part, replacing your own whole house dehumidifier unit is not nearly as bad so long as you get a similar brand and similar model. So if you are going to pick up a replacement for your existing Honeywell, then make sure that you measure the size of your existing unit exactly to ensure a snug fit with the new unit.
Honeywell's whole house dehumidification product is actually essential in some parts of the world. There are regions in northern South America for instance that stay at or near 100% humidity year round so a system like this is critical to live a comfortable modern life style. However, if your house was not built to handle this type of dehumidifier from the start, installing it will cost your thousands of dollars. In that case, you may want to choose a couple of mid-sized dehumidifiers instead of going with the whole house option.
Although Honeywell makes a really nice whole house dehumidification system, it is not practical for the average buyer. That being said, for those who can afford it, this system will make your life significantly better. If you have a couple thousand to make your life more comfortable, then please go for it. In jungle regions this could be a life-saver.
