4 Interior dehumidifier, Absorbs damp crystals in box

Product Information

If you're wondering how to get rid of mould in a poorly ventilated room, or trying to combat excess moisture or humidity inside the home, then a dehumidifier can be a useful tool in your arsenal.

As Chris Michael, Managing Director of the air quality brand Meaco says, inside the home, 'excess moisture in the air can come from drying clothes in the house, boiling vegetables, putting the kettle on, bathing, showering, open flame gas style heating, damp clothing, breathing, and the damp British weather.' Research your energy tariff and see if your electricity is cheaper at certain times, such as at night. If so, you could time it to come on during those hours. Alternatively, consider using it when your home is most likely to have high humidity levels, such as when you are showering, cooking or have the heating on.

How to choose the best dehumidifier for your home

It is specially designed with Peltier technology which silent operation. So, you can place it in your bedroom and baby room peaceful sleep. It has a water tank capacity of 700ml which sufficient for small rooms like office cabins and study area. For reasons of hygiene and safety, personal grooming products, cosmetics or items of intimate clothing cannot be returned.

The alternative is a Peltier dehumidifier, which, although not specified, is likely the method the Silentnight 39899 600ml Dehumidifier uses. In contrast to a compressor dehumidifier, a Peltier dehumidifier uses a far quieter thermo-electric process to extract moisture from the air. As it consumes very less power, it is suitable for environmentally friendly solutions. This dehumidifier has a very simple operation process as it just has one single button. When the tank gets empty, it will automatically turn off to prevent overheating or damage.For all their benefits, though, dehumidifiers are bulky and can be expensive depending on the model, and this is something that puts many people off. In this case, crystal damp removers have risen to prominence, but do they work and are they as effective as traditional dehumidifiers? Mumsnet has been helping parents make their lives easier since 2000 and, in those years, we’ve seen, tried and reviewed thousands of products. Unlike a compressor dehumidifier that passes air over a cold coil to condense the water from it, a desiccant dehumidifier uses a 'desiccant chemical' to absorb the moisture from the air. As a result, desiccant dehumidifiers are the best option for rooms that are likely to fall below 15°c, as at lower temperatures compressor and Peltier models can struggle to work efficiently. If you’re looking for a dehumidifier that can clear moisture in a larger space or deal with significant damp levels within the home, then you need a dehumidifier with a high extraction rate. The operation of this device is pretty standard. Basically, the device has two coils; Hot and Cold.

The MeacoDry Arete One dehumidifiers are some of the best dehumidifiers we've tested. They're quiet, easy to use, work superbly and are very energy-efficient compared to other compressor models. Plus, all offer a built-in air purification function to improve air quality within the home in more ways than one. All that said, the Russell Hobbs RHDH2002 20L dehumidifier still impressed our review team during testing. So, if you’re looking for a powerful dehumidifier with a cheaper upfront cost, the Russell Hobbs RHDH2002 20L is well worth considering.Easy to use and go about, the device also comes with a 2-year manufacturer’s warranty but this does not specify warranty for any gas or fluid leakage. The lightweight, compact, and portable will make this dehumidifier a prefect choice for every one and it suits even in small storage spaces. This heavy-duty performance dehumidifier will consume 405 watts of power supply that let you breathe comfortably.

Eva-Dry 333 Dehumidifier houses a non-toxic crystallized silica gel technology that absorbs moisture from the air. It absorbs 4oz to 6oz (118ml to 177ml) of the moisture-level and works for small areas of around 50 sq ft. You will not have any leaks or spills. If you're looking for the best dehumidifier for the bedroom, then, in our opinion, it's all about finding a dehumidifier with low noise volume, and the Silentnight 39899 600ml Dehumidifier is one of the quietest dehumidifiers we've tested. So, moisture crystals are touted for removing moisture in the air in small spaces – which they do – but how do they compare with actual damp? If you’re looking for a small dehumidifier, then the Russell Hobbs RHDH1061G Portable Dehumidifier is about as compact as it gets, measuring just H22 x W14 x D14cm and weighing in at 0.9kg. They are some kind of crystals or beads that are white in color but are actually silicon dioxide. It represents the classic material you find in beach sand.
