Most dehumidifiers use the hot gas as condenser reheat, so they're
self-contained and require no refrigerant piping. Therefore, they're
easy to install... They also add some load to your air conditioning
system, because the electricity they use shows up as heat in the house.

They forgot to mention the latent heat, about 60% more than the electrical
energy used, as I measured it.
