What Do Dehumidifiers Do?

Using WiseAire Dehumidification systems, you can enjoy a more comfortable home and a healthier basement or crawl space.  Our system is an ultra-efficient, powerful dehumidification and air filtration system which removes 100 pints of moisture per day from your basement. A WiseAire system reduces moisture and controls humidity when your basement or crawl space smells and feels like a musty, moldy cellar.

Why is it Important?

A stack effect occurs when 50% of the air you breathe upstairs comes from below your first floor. By reducing relative humidity to below 50%, WiseAire ensures that unhealthy mold won’t grow.  Lowering the humidity level in your basement will remove musty odors and limit mold growth.

What Do We Offer?

WiseAire Dehumidification systems will keep your basement or crawl space dry and mold-free. There’s no need to put up with the musty smell of a basement anymore. The Wiseaire system is strong enough to dehumidify up to 3,000 square feet and self-drains so you never have to empty the water out like regular dehumidifiers.

Ruin Your Day!

FAQs: What Metro Detroit Homeowners Should Know About Basement Dehumidification & Air Purification

Basement dehumidification and air filtration systems regulate indoor humidity and eliminate musty cellar odors. Due to the “stack effect,” up to 50% of the air breathed on the upper floors of your home rises from the basement or crawl space. Maintaining relative humidity levels below 50% stops unhealthy mold growth, eliminates musty odors, and improves overall indoor air quality.
In the Metro Detroit area, a commercial-grade, self-draining basement dehumidifier and air filtration system typically ranges from $1,500 to $3,200, including professional installation, dedicated drainage lines, and setup. Standard residential portable units often fail to keep up with Michigan’s humid summers and require constant manual emptying, whereas a heavy-duty, self-draining unit provides continuous, hands-free humidity control.

The WiseAire system is an ultra-efficient, high-capacity dehumidification and air filtration unit designed specifically for basements and crawl spaces. Key features include:

  • High Moisture Removal: Removes up to 100 pints of moisture per day from the air.
  • Large Coverage Area: Capable of dehumidifying spaces up to 3,000 square feet.
  • Self-Draining Operation: Drains automatically so you never have to manually empty water buckets.
  • Air Filtration: Filters airborne particles to keep basement air clean and dry.
Mold requires moisture and humidity levels above 50% to grow and spread. By lowering and maintaining relative humidity below 50%, a dedicated dehumidifier eliminates the damp environment mold needs to survive, protecting your home’s structural framing, drywall, and stored belongings from moisture damage.
You can schedule a free in-home consultation with Basement Waterproofing of Michigan by calling (248) 509-0597 or submitting an online request. A specialist will inspect your basement or crawl space, measure ambient humidity levels, and determine whether a self-draining WiseAire system is appropriate for your home.
