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.

I've given this unit a test drive and it works as expected. HAve to remove quite a lot of water from the reservoir, but it's definitely worth the trouble.

My old dehumidifier is still running but not quite with the same spring in the step and the humidity doesn't get below 55%, which is not comfortable for me. I liked the price and the reviews on this unit and made the purchase. The humidity got down to 45% over night, so i couldn't be happier. I also like the overall design, the large screen and I hope it will last long

This is a beast of a unit and it's capable of filling the tank in about 3 hours or so, which is impressive. It will easily lower the humidity to less than 40% if necessary, and it also has a turbo mode. I had slight flooding last spring and this unit helped me out loads.

This unit turned out to be perfect for my house! I fell a very significant improvement in the air quality around the house and I can finally relax and have some peace of mind

Thank God for dehumidifiers! This thing is able to remove huge amounts of water form pretty much anywhere ( including our half-finished basement)
