How Does A Dehumidifier Work?

The Master Range of portable dehumidifiers work by drawing in humid air from the surrounding environment and removing excess moisture from it. The dehumidifier contains a fan that pulls in the air, which then passes over a cold coil. As the air passes over the coil, the moisture in the air condenses into water droplets, which collect in a collection container or are directed through a hose to a drain.

The dehumidifier then releases the drier air back into the room. Some portable dehumidifiers also contain a heating element to warm up the air before it is released, which can help to prevent the room from feeling too cold and damp. The addition of a heater, fan or carpet blower used in conjunction with a dehumidifier to help heat and circulate the air would also speed the drying process.

Many portable dehumidifiers also come with a humidistat, which allows you to set a target humidity level. The dehumidifier will then automatically turn on and off to maintain the desired humidity level in the room.

Overall, portable dehumidifiers are an effective way to reduce excess moisture in a room, which can help to prevent the growth of mould and mildew and create a more comfortable living environment, they are also used extensively after flooding and also water damage caused by burst pipes. Another great use for portable dehumidifiers is to accelerate the drying of freshly plastered walls and ceilings.
