What is a dehumidifier?


A dehumidifier is an appliance that reduces the level of humidity in air, usually for health reasons, as humid air can cause mold and mildew to grow inside homes, which has various health risks. Very high humidity levels are also unpleasant for human beings, and can cause unsightly condensation. Dehumidifiers are useful in a variety of situations including new buildings, and buildings which have been subject to flooding.

What do dehumidifiers do?


Dehumidifiers dry the air without cooling it. They work like a normal air conditioner, except that a heat exchanger is placed between the intake and exhaust. In combination with convection fans they achieve a similar level of comfort as an air cooler in humid areas, but only consume about a third of the electricity. They are also preferred by those who find the draft created by air coolers discomforting. Air conditioners automatically act as dehumidifiers when they chill the air and thus need to handle the accumulated water as well. Some models use the condensing coil and fan to evaporate the accumulated water into the outdoor air, while normal units simply allow the water to collect in a tank. Some air conditioning units need to be connected to a drain.

Where can I use a dehumidifier?


  • General commercial/industrial drying  
  • Storage/warehouse dehumidification
  • Disaster restoration/flood damage
  • Construction industry dehumidification

My air conditioning is not working. What should I do?

As the outside temperatures rise and the sun is beating through the windows, it is tempting to turn your portable air conditioning down to as low as 16 degrees, thinking that the colder the air conditioner is set, the faster it will cool the room.  In fact, this is not how the cooling units work.  Whatever the temperature is set at, an air conditioner will pump out the same amount of cool air, and setting it at a lower temperature only tells it when to stop pumping out the cool air, rather than speeding up the cooling effect. The air conditioning units should ideally be set at around 24/25 degrees, to ensure that the units are not working so hard that they stop working altogether.  The models most affected by the hot temperatures are the Climatemaster, KY32, Trotec 2600, PKY12 or Compact 12, whereas units such as the Weltems, can cope with the exceptional temperatures. If your portable air conditioner does stop working or is not cooling the room, there are a few thi

The advantages of a maintenance agreement for your air conditioning

Regular air conditioner servicing has many benefits Increased efficiency of operation Reduced chance of a costly, major breakdown at the worst time Longer lifespan of the unit Increased comfort Lower operating costs Improved air quality Priority call-out Adherence to manufacturer’s extended parts warranty Energy Efficiency Regular air conditioner servicing can improve your air conditioner's efficiency. A clogged air filter in your air conditioning system can affect its efficiency as it will obstruct the air flow and increase the energy consumption.   A clean air filter in your room air conditioner, whether it is a ceiling recessed cassette system, or a ceiling suspended system, saves 15 percent energy compared with a dirty one.   Dirty condenser coils will make the air compressor run harder which increases the energy consumption and your electricity bill.   Lower Repair Costs If regular maintenance is not carried out, your air conditioner could eventu
