Choosing the right dehumidifier is difficult for many people, because many brands will try to persuade consumers to buy their own dehumidifier. Many people don't know how to buy desiccant dehumidifiers because there are too many kinds of dehumidifiers on the market. This paper will give some reasonable suggestions.

 

There are two different types in the domestic market - desiccant dehumidifier and compressor dehumidifier. When people who have never used a dehumidifier before decide which one to buy, they get confused. Portable compressor dehumidifier has existed for more than 40 years. Its working principle is to create a cold surface, when the moist air from the room comes into contact with the cold surface, it will form condensed water, thus removing the moisture from the air.

 

The best desiccant dehumidifier is not equipped with a compressor and does not use a cold surface to extract excess water from the air. Instead, it has a desiccant wheel that absorbs moisture from the air like a sponge. The desiccant is regenerated by an internal heater, so the process can be recycled over and over again. Many customers prefer to use mini desiccant dehumidifiers because they are quieter and better used when running.

 

Keep the room warm and dry

Most customers are looking for a dehumidifier to keep the cold air at home. In winter, the home will be warmer. So which kind of dehumidifier is the best?

 

Both types of dehumidifiers heat the air slightly, which doesn't mean they are heaters, but they heat the air through the dehumidifier. The air from the compressor dehumidifier will be about 2°C. The air from the desiccant dehumidifier will be warm about 10-12°C. There is a big difference between the two. Therefore, if you place the dehumidifier in the corridor on the cold side, the desiccant is more helpful, because it will make the air warm up quickly. But if the corridor is not cold, you can buy a small compressor dehumidifier as the best option.

 

Low energy consumption

Although the compressor dehumidifier is cheap to operate, the desiccant dehumidifier is warmer to operate. Therefore, you should consider what the purpose of this kind of dehumidifier is when you buy it. And compressor dehumidifier can effectively reduce power consumption. So we often call it the winner of low power consumption.

 

Drying washing

One of the most common reasons people have condensation and mold on their clothes is because they are drying them indoors. Clothes can be dried because the surrounding air is drier. It will release the moisture in the clothes to keep balance with the surrounding environment. Using dehumidifiers to create a dry atmosphere and drying the air is a good way to quickly dry clothes and ensure that moisture in the clothes enters the dehumidifier rather than spread around the house and cause other problems.

Drying clothes with a dehumidifier works the same way as drying clothes online in summer. Its environment is actually a simulated dry, warm and windy reality. So if you live in a city that is prone to humidity, you can buy a dehumidifier to solve most of your worries about humidity.
