The cost to install a swamper for the same size home is about $1,500. about 1/4 the cost. Also you failed to mention the vent feature ( blower on and no water so you just pull air from outside with no water on) on the swamper unit can be utilized this feature when the humidity is too high for the comfort of the homeowner.
