Product Description

The RESEARCH PRODUCTS E130A is a high-capacity whole-house dehumidifier rated to remove up to 130 pints (16 gallons) of moisture from the air per day. Built as part of an energy-efficient e-series lineup, the E130A is suited for whole-home, basement, and sealed crawl space dehumidification. It carries ENERGY STAR Most Efficient recognition for 2021, making it a strong choice for HVAC contractors and indoor air quality professionals looking to deliver verified moisture control performance in residential applications. The unit is designed to maintain relative humidity in the 40-60 percent range, which is the accepted target for limiting mold growth, bacteria, and other airborne biological contaminants.

The E130A is intended for residential installations where whole-home or zone-level humidity control is required. Typical applications include finished basements, sealed crawl spaces, and ducted whole-house systems. It is well suited for climates with high seasonal humidity loads and for homes where elevated indoor humidity is contributing to comfort complaints, mold risk, or air quality concerns. HVAC technicians typically integrate this unit into existing ductwork or install it as a standalone unit in a basement or mechanical room.
