Pro Breeze® 10L Desiccant Dehumidifier with Timer, Air Filter, Continuous Drainage, Digital Control Panel - Ideal for Cold Temperatures in Damp Homes, Basements & Garages

Product Information

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. 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. As you would expect, this means it has a tiny 0.5 litre water tank - although this isn't a major problem as the maximum extraction is just 0.25 litre per day. Despite the low extraction capacity, it does a decent job of removing water from the air. If you have a mild damp problem or just want a dehumidifier as a preventative measure, it can certainly do a job.

As the name suggests, the Simple doesn't include many of the complex features found on more expensive EcoAir dehumidifiers. It does, however, have a dial for adjusting humidity settings and a laundry drying mode. The machine is also quiet at34dB - largely due to the desiccant technology. As it's a refrigerant model, the MeacoDry ABC excels in warmer conditions. This makes it suitable for heated homes, but we wouldn't recommend it for garages, conservatories, boats or unheated rooms. For those locations, one of the small desiccant dehumidifiers on this list would be a better choice. Swinging Outlet - The swinging air outlet lets you direct the air flow where you want for the best effect.It's also worth considering noise levels and energy consumption before you invest in a dehumidifier. What's the quietest dehumidifier?

It also offers Smart App controls, which means you can connect it to WiFi and operate it remotely via the Pro Breeze App or connect to Alexa or similar voice-activated devices. It has a decent-sized water tank capacity of 4L, and an automatic humidity sensor which means you can set your desired humidity level, switch it on, and just let it do its thing.

Operating the device couldn’t be easier with a modern, LED screen featuring a full touch panel for ease of control. Features Thanks to this, the Silentnight 39899 dehumidifier has noise levels of just 25dBA, and as our reviewer says 'when I say it’s whisper quiet, I mean it. I couldn't hear this dehumidifier whilst it was running at all. That makes it perfect for anywhere you want to maintain peace and quiet' – like the bedroom. Large Collection Tank: Large 3L water tank automatically shuts off when maximum capacity is reached, and a continuous drainage hose is included for long-term use. The width of the DD1 Simple is 29cm, so it won't take upmuch space. It also has a thin depth of just 18cm and weighs only 18kg. This design, combined with the lift-out handle, makes it a great option as a portable dehumidifier.

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. The downside is that this dehumidifier has a far lower extraction rate than most, extracting just 0.3 litres of water from the air per day. For comparison, the best in class Meaco Arete One dehumidifier can extract between 10 and 25 litres of water from the air per day depending which model you opt for. Water tank capacity is also reduced, with the Silentnight model only able to hold 0.6L of water. That means you'll be emptying the tank frequently. So, on the surface, it appears that refrigerant dehumidifiers would be the go-to choice for energy usage, but this isn’t true. In colder rooms, a desiccant dehumidifier will be much more efficient than a refrigerant type, despite the increased running costs. Energy consumption also varies drastically based on fan speeds. It can be further reduced if the dehumidifier has a humidistat or timer. Is It Expensive To Run a Dehumidifier? Costs as little as 1p/hour to run: Our dehumidifier has been designed to be energy-efficient with low power consumption.The tank capacity dictates how much water the water tank of the dehumidifier can hold before it needs emptying. A larger tank capacity – such as the MeacoDry Arete One Dehumidifier's generous 2.5L or 4.8Ltanks – means you won't be emptying it as frequently. The results of this are extremely interesting and confirm our suspicions. Whilst mini dehumidifiers consume less electricity than larger models, they are significantly less efficient. Cutting the Cost of Using a Dehumidifier

There are very few truly mini dehumidifiers on the market - at least thatare also effective at removing water from the air. While the Pro Breeze doesn't come close to the extraction power of full-size models, it has a mini design that's perfect for garages, bathrooms, wardrobes, caravans and small rooms. Costs as little as 18 p/hour to run: Our energy-efficient dehumidifier has been designed to automatically shut off once it has reached your desired humidity level. The De'Longhi Tascuigo AriaDry DEX216F is the largest model in the range and able to extract 16L of water from the air per day, and although the tank capacity isn't the largest, at 2.1L it still offers adequate capacity. This multi-purpose appliance also has an air purifier function with a double filtration system that can remove dust and other allergens from the air, plus a dedicated Laundry Drying function. Desiccant dehumidifiers MASSIVELY outperform refrigerant dehumidifiers at room temperatures below 15 Celsius. The sleek and modern unit with navy blue exterior stands out from the crowd in all the right ways, and whilst it doesn't have built-in wheels like most dehumidifiers of this size, the integrated carry handle and mid-weight build make it relatively easy to transport from room to room. If you want a more compact build, then there is also a 12L and 14L model available.One of the great things about this model is the quiet operation. The sound level output varies between 35-40 decibels, making it Meaco's quietest dehumidifier. This is particularly important in small homes or flats, where a loud dehumidifier could be much more annoying.
