A dehumidifier works in a similar way to an air conditioner. Although the dehumidifier does not cool the air in a room it makes it more comfortable as it reduces the humidity in air.
A dehumidifier will not operate satisfactory in a room that is below 65 degrees F. At temperatures below 65 F., frost may form on the coils. As water condenses out of the air, heat is given off, raising the temperature slightly in the area around
the appliance. This warmer air results in a lower relative humidity.
Dehumidifier capacity is usually measured in pints per 24 hours and is determined by two factors: the size of the space that needs to be dehumidified and the conditions that exist in the space before dehumidification.
It is important to clean the humidifier regularly to remove lime scale caused by water minerals, which collect on the belts, the water reservoir and other parts that come in contact with the water. Always unplug the power cord before cleaning the unit.
For regular cleaning, dust the grilles or louvers with a soft brush or the dusting attachment of a vacuum clean.
A dehumidifier is an essential one in daily life and there are lots of sites from where you can buy it online.
