Warm absorbers are an important new probe of the central region of active galaxies (AGN). Observing and modeling this component provides a wealth of information on the nature of the warm absorber itself, its relation to other components of the active nucleus, and the intrinsic AGN X-ray spectral shape. We briefly review the general properties of dusty warm gas. For the first time, we then apply such a model to the IR loud quasar IRAS 13349+2438. It was the first to be suggested to host a dusty warm absorber (Brandt et al. 1996), but has not yet been modeled as such.
