This lightweight portable Compact Air Dehumidier helps to prevent build-up

of mould and mildew by removing excessive moisture from the atmosphere. This

dehumidier is ideal for use around the home, kitchen, bedroom, garage or basement,

as well as caravans or other small areas between 1-10m².

Air always contains a certain amount of water in the form of water vapour. This is

known as humidity. The capacity of the air to hold water vapour increases with the

temperature. This is why in our homes, as soon as the temperature decreases, the

vapour contained in the air condenses leaving moisture on the colder surfaces in the

room such as the windows and the walls etc.

The purpose of the dehumidier is to remove the excess moisture from the air to

control the condensation in the home. The optimum environmental conditions for

the home are between 40% and 60% Relative Humidity (RH).

Below these levels the air can feel too dry and may cause skin complaints and create

static.

If temperatures in the home are below 10°C for prolonged periods, low level

heating will be necessary to allow the condensation to evaporate into the air before

dehumidication can take place. The air will however be slightly warmed by the

dehumidier as the dry air leaving the dehumidier is between 1°C to 4°C higher

than ambient room temperature.
