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.

The unit works as described and rescued our basement from the high humidity and weird smells.

We've had very heavy rains this season and the water was coming up from the basement floor. This dehumidifier had its work cut out, but emerged victorious. The basement is safe and dry, along with our possessions and sanity

This dehumidifier need to be turned on and initially set to a certain level of humidity it has to keep. Then it will automatically turn on and off to uphold that level. Pretty convenient

I'm happy with my purchase. The unit is running perfectly. The only problem I've had is that it was shutting off after attaching the hose. After contacting the customer service it turned out that the hose was too short and they recommended me the right size. Now it's all working just fine. The support team was so nice too! Great job!

We've had an issue with high humidity and this unit was up for the challenge and helped get this problem under control. The bucket is not very big, but that's actually a plus for us, as my wife can empty it without strain, when I'm not around. I wish we would have had it sooner!
