What is a Compressor Dehumidifier and How Does it Work?

A compressor dehumidifier is a useful thing to have. It’s a unit that works by drawing in the air which passes over the filter and then over cold coils. As the coils cool you get water condensation and then drips into a bucket within the unit. The air is reheated to room temperature and blown back out into the room. It basically sucks all the moisture from your room reducing the chances of mold and mildew growth and also dust and dust mite buildup.

The Devola 20L Compressor Dehumidifier With HEPA Filter & Wi-Fi from the Air Con Centre is a quiet model. It can extract up to 20L of moisture in the air per day in temperatures as low as 5°C.

There are many uses for this great-looking compressor dehumidifier, including around the home like the laundry room and your conservatory. Outbuildings, garages, boats and even your caravan or motorhome. For busy families with lots of washing, it’s very useful for helping the moisture in the air when you are having to dry clothes inside on the airer with the handy laundry mode option.

If you have stuffy rooms, a lot of window condensation, musty smells, and notice mold and mildew occurring, it’s time to get a compressor dehumidifier. They are fine to use while you are sleeping as they improve the air quality you are breathing in while you are asleep. A good timescale to go with is to use your dehumidifier for 12 hours a day.
