for the past couple of years I was able to get by with a fan running
24/7 and flipping on my dehumidifier for a couple of hours a day but
this year with the same practice I've started to see the presence of a
white mold on some leather shoes and some wooden products close to the
floor. I decided I needed to run my dehumidifier longer and add
another fan but what ever I do I still can't get my humidity under 60.
My basement is about 600 sq/ft and I'm using a 45pt dehumifier. From
everything I've read on the sizing chart it should be more than
sufficient. What could have changed in my basement that is making it
more humid? I'm in CT and this July has been the 6th rainiest on
record, could that have something to do with it?
