Dehumidifiers are designed to remove excess moisture from the air, which leads to the formation of mold and mildew in the room. There are several technologies used in devices. Desiccant dryers contain desiccant that effectively absorbs moisture. Such devices are used in storage warehouses, for example, dried fruits, cereals and pasta. Compression works by condensing water vapor. Excess moisture falls on a cold surface, condenses and flows into the container. Water is removed manually or by installing a drain pipe.
Experts have carefully analyzed the market, ranking the 6 best air dryers.
How to choose a dehumidifier
- Appointment. There are industrial and household ones. They differ in performance and are designed for areas of different sizes. Industrial ones absorb moisture in thousands of liters, while domestic ones absorb up to 50 liters per day.
- Varieties. Stationary devices are mounted on the ceiling or wall, while mobile ones have wheels that allow you to easily move the dehumidifier to any room. Almost all household dehumidifiers are mobile.
- Power. There are enough devices for 200-400 watts for the home. If you need more capacity, then pay attention to dehumidifiers with a capacity of 400-700 watts.
- Intensity. For an area of 6-12 squares, models with an intensity of 10-20 liters per day are suitable, for rooms with an area of 14-20 sq. / M – 20-30 liters, for 15-30 sq. / M – 30-40 liters, and for rooms over 30 sq. / m – from 40 liters.
- Air exchange. To choose the right dehumidifier, you need to calculate the volume of the room in which the device will work. Buy devices with air exchange, which is several times greater than the calculated volume. For example, for 50 cubic meters / m, a model with an air exchange of 150-200 m3 / h will be required.
- Noise level. Most dehumidifiers have an average performance, so the noise level is 40-50 dB. The most comfortable indicator will be in the range of 40-45 dB.
- Hygrostat. Devices with a hygrostat are convenient and economical to use. They work taking into account the humidity of the room, without overdrying it. In the process, the consumed energy is saved, since turning on and off is triggered automatically depending on the set humidity parameters, that is, the device does not plow dry.
- Ionization. Dehumidifiers with ionization function artificially create a high concentration of air ions in the room. This makes breathing pleasant and easy.
