Product Information

It’s generally not recommended to dry laundry in rooms with a lot of soft furnishings (such as bedrooms) if at all possible. As many paediatricians say, maintaining an ideal level of humidity in your home is essential for the overall well-being of your family. The optimal humidity level should range between 40-60%. And the experts recommend that the most suitable human humidity should be close to 45%. Why Is Proper Humidity so Important? The main purpose of a dehumidifier is to reduce the level of humidity in a room. Most dehumidifiers have an internal refrigeration system, which cools the air drawn into the dehumidifier over a coil. Always use exhaust fans in your kitchen and bathroom while cooking and showering. If you haven't got fans, you can simply open the window to let fresh and dry air in.

As the air cools, the water vapour condenses on the cold surface of the coil and this is collected in a water container.

Perhaps the best-looking dehumidifier on our list, the Midea Cube is only a foot tall when collapsed for storage but extends upwards in use to hold 11 litres of water. That’s about three times more than traditional dehumidifiers and means you need to empty it less often. Another option is to just use the top half and run its hose into a sink or drain so that you never have to empty it at all. The recommended indoor humidity is between 40% and 60%, and a dehumidifier will generally aim to maintain a level of around 55%. The Honeywell features a smart digital humidistat,” Air Con Centre’s Ryan Kandola says. “It automatically senses the moisture levels of your room to maintain your pre-programmed humidity level. There’s also a washable dust filter to purify the air that has already been dehumidified. It’s a good all-rounder.” It's also worth considering noise levels and energy consumption before you invest in a dehumidifier. What's the quietest dehumidifier?

Size, which refers to the quantity of water a machine can extract per 24 hours, is one of the most important factors when choosing a dehumidifier. As a general rule, the larger or damper the room is, the greater the required capacity. The third option is sometimes described as a thermo-electric dehumidifier, or one that has peltier technology. Here the input fan draws the moist air onto a cold heat sink, where the moisture condenses and drips into the collecting tank. The dried air then passes to a hot heat sink and is then expelled as warm and dry air.
