Klima Optima Dehumidifiers
Controlling the relative indoor humidity in your fitness center will reduce mold and bacteria buildup and produce happy members. Without dehumidification systems leading to unacceptable indoor air quality, these facilities tend to get grim pretty fast—when not controlled, moisture buildup from members’ sweat results in foul odors, shorter equipment lifespans, and the proliferation of diseases.
Given that many gym facilities now run 24/7 in at least some capacity, counting on traditional air conditioning systems falls short of adequately reducing moisture buildup, and the lack of downtimes means that new moisture is always entering the air. In many areas of the country traditional air conditioning systems are not called upon to operate due to already cold outdoor temperatures leading to no control of moisture build-up. In these cases, it’s best to install a dedicated dehumidification system, which filters liquid particles from the air in tandem with your existing A/C, helping you maintain a clean, sanitary facility.
The average member at gyms produces between 27 and 47 ounces of sweat per hour of exercise. Without proper dehumidification, this moisture can seep into mats and equipment, causing mold and mildew buildup. Additionally, excess moisture can corrode equipment, cause electric motor failures, drastically limit the useful life of fitness equipment, and damage your building’s integrity.
With Klima Optima, we can provide various humidity management solutions such as our industrial dehumidifiers to help preserve the condition of your facilities and equipment from mold and corrosion while keeping your members safe and healthy. It is a portable solution that can help keep your facilities and equipment dry all year round
