How do the decissant dehumidifiers operate?
Desiccant dehumidifiers use an absorbent material, usually Zeolite, that soaks up water vapour from the air, just like silica gel. The desiccant material is located in the wheel, that slowly rotates. The fan draws the air through that wheel, and the air dries. Moisture is extracted from the desiccant by heating a portion of the wheel not being used to dry the air. This transforms the water back into vapour, which is then passed over a cold plate to cool the mixture and cause the water to condense.
Desiccant dehumidifiers will work best in temperatures from 1℃ up to 40℃. They are also very practical and efficient with a very high capacity for water extraction.
How do compressor dehumidifiers operate?
Compressor dehumidifiers work best at higher temperatures, starting from 15℃. Note that tests are made in the temperature of about 30℃ and humidity level of 80%.
The performance of such dehumidifier tends to depend on environmental conditions, which is referred to as sensible capacity. Note that in the real working environment, the sensible performance of a compressor dehumidifier will be lower, that in the test environment.
What is the difference between the compressor and decissant boat dehumidifier?
The compressor dehumidifier works best at 15℃ or higher. The desiccant dehumidifier, on the other hand, can work at temperatures as low as 1℃. In case you plan to leave the boat dehumidifier without supervision for an extended period during winter, the desiccant dehumidifier is ideal for you. Ensure the dehumidifier has the automatic restart feature, in case the electricity is unstable.
What are the important features to look for in a boat dehumidifier?
The crucial features are the humidistat, automatic reset and a cut off switch. The automatic reset will turn the dehumidifier on when the power source comes back. The humidistat will make sure that your dehumidifier is working on an optimal level, and will turn off as soon as the humidity reaches the pre-set level. The cut-off switch will stop the operation of the dehumidifier, as soon as the water tank is full. There is also a light indicator of such an event that will turn on.

Initially I bought this unit for drying clothes. I have a washer but no dryer in my flat. After using it for a couples of months, I have to say I'm very impressed. Not only dries the washing, but also heats up the place a bit which can't hurt in cold and damp season. It collects impressive amounts of water, so I'm thrilled. Just need to empty the tank every day, which is no big deal.

It's not too noisy for me.. I can use it even in the bedroom if I'm too tired!

I bought this model mainly for the compact size, although I could use some extra power. But my flat is small so I can't afford to lose the space on a bigger model. Love how this one works and it makes the air much more comfortable.

The first week or so, this device was working non stop. It soaked up a lot of water, so after that the process went a little slower and it was working on the more of a chilled mode. Great product. Made the air much more healthy for my family and keeps the mould at bay. I also use it in the garage from time to time, but mostly in the house.
