1 Ton Split System. What can I do to control the humidity levels in my home?

The system can actually be located in several different places. A system with up-flow application might be located in the basement, while a system with a horizontal application may be found in your attic. A self-contained, or single package unit, could be located outside on a slab or on the roof. Your garage could house an up-flow, down-flow or horizontal application system.

A heat pump is a device used for either the heating or cooling of a space by transferring hot and cold between two reservoirs.
