Munters dehumidifiers are used worldwide to protect film, tapes, documents, books, and artifacts in archives, museums, and libraries. Temperature and pollutants are important factors in preserving documents. In general the humidity and temperature have to be as stable as possible and pollutants should be kept to a minimum. In some cases entire museums or libraries are climate controlled with Munters systems. A benefit of using a Munters system is that it minimizes energy consumption.  

Galleries, Museums and Libraries are public places requiring ventilation air that carries a high moisture load. For these types of buildings a dehumidifier treating the load at its source (i.e. fresh air before it enters the building) is most suitable. Archives have less public access and therefore less ventilation meaning that treating the return air is more appropriate.  

Using dehumidification has the following advantages:
