Terms of Service
Written by the Dehumidifier for Basement editorial team and reviewed for source accuracy. Last updated July 2026.
By using this site, its calculators, or its contractor matching forms, you accept the terms below. If you do not agree with them, please do not use the site.
Informational use only
Content here is general information about basement moisture and dehumidification. It is not professional inspection, engineering, construction, remediation, electrical, plumbing, legal or medical advice, and it cannot account for the conditions in your specific building. Where work involves water near electricity, structural repair, gas appliances or mold beyond a small surface area, engage a qualified professional.
No guarantee of results
Sizing suggestions, cost estimates and troubleshooting steps are estimates based on published guidance from the EPA, the U.S. Department of Energy and AHAM. Actual performance depends on your building, climate, equipment and maintenance. Calculator outputs are estimates, not guarantees of a utility bill or a dry basement.
Using our forms and matching requests
When you submit a ZIP code or contact details through a form on this site, you are asking us to assess whether qualified local home improvement, waterproofing or remediation professionals serve your area. Submitting a form does not create a contract, does not guarantee that a professional will contact you, and does not guarantee a free inspection or any particular price. You agree that the information you provide is accurate and is yours to submit.
Independent professionals
Any contractor, inspector or remediation company referenced or matched through this site is an independent business. We do not perform the work, do not supervise it, and are not a party to any agreement you make with them. Verify licensing, insurance and references before hiring. We may be paid a referral or advertising fee.
Product information and affiliate links
Specifications, prices and availability come from manufacturers and retailers and change without notice. Confirm the exact model number and current specification before purchasing. Some links are affiliate links; see the affiliate disclosure and the review methodology.
Acceptable use
Do not submit false or automated form entries, scrape the site at volume, attempt to interfere with its operation, or republish original text, tables and tools wholesale without permission. Brief quotations with a link back are fine. Trademarks and model names belong to their respective owners.
Privacy
Information you submit is handled as described in our Privacy Policy, which forms part of these terms.
Limitation of liability
To the fullest extent permitted by law, we are not liable for property damage, loss or injury arising from use of this site, its tools, referrals, or actions taken based on its content.
Changes and contact
We may update these terms; the last-updated date at the top of this page reflects the most recent revision. Questions can be sent through the contact page.
