During the colder months buildings become warmer inside than outside; a natural result of this is condensation and increased humidity in the indoor environment. This is not to mention the natural humidity emitted by people daily along with moisture released in steam from the cooker, from clothes drying and even from houseplants.
You'll notice the effects of excess moisture in condensation on the windows, water stains on the ceilings or walls, black spots/mould spores appearing on walls and ceilings, and you can even detect it by the distinctive musty mildew smell.
A small amount of moisture can be manageable, although it can often lead to larger problems with mould and damp setting into the brickwork and plaster. If this happens paintwork becomes stained, wallpaper starts to peel off the walls, it starts to smell and can be quite hard to remove.
High levels of humidity can also have a negative impact on your health as it can aggravate allergies and in the long-term cause more severe illnesses.
If you’re looking for an effective solution to the condensation/high humidity problem in your home or office, a dehumidifier is the best solution. As the name suggests, a dehumidifier removes excess moisture from the surrounding air. It does this by cleverly collecting it into a tank which can be removed and emptied every couple of days.
The Duronic DH05 Dehumidifier is a fantastic little device that will do its job perfectly. It’s highly effective, very energy efficient, produces very little noise and when left to run will reduce the humidity in the air and ultimately make your environment a more pleasant place to be.
Energy Efficient
For those who are concerned about energy-saving, this electric humidifier runs on just 22.5W. The power consumption is so low that is is highly energy efficient, meaning you can run the machine all day long without any worry of running up high electricity bills.
One-Touch Operation
Thoughtfully made, this dehumidifier has a simple easy-to-use design and one-touch operation to ensure it is easy to use every time.
Fits in Almost Anywhere
Designed to be used in smaller spaces like a utility room or small bedroom, this mini dehumidifier can be placed just about anyway, for instance, on a shelf, tabletop or even a kitchen countertop.
Extracts up to 250ml Per Day
If using continuously, this device extracts up to 250ml of moisture per day. This figure corresponds to operation in a room at a temperature of 30°C with a relative humidity (RH) of 80%.
In a room with a lower temperature and relative humidity, the DH05 will extract about 150ml per day.
500ml Water Tank
The 500ml water tank is large enough to allow the dehumidifier to run for at least two days continuously without the need to empty it.
When the time does come to empty it, simply pull out the tank, pop out the plug stopper and pour the water away.
Full Tank Indicator
On the front of the machine is a clear transparent window which acts as a water level gauge allowing you to keep an eye on how full the tank is getting.
When the water tank is full, the LED will turn orange and the machine will automatically stop.
Once the tank is emptied, the LED will turn back to blue and the machine will start up again.
