Among the internal factors of the house, we cite the different daily activities carried out in rooms such as the kitchen, the bathroom, the shower and in a simpler way breathing. Indeed, all this has the disadvantage of causing condensation, the consequences of which are identical with the humidity which originates from the outside: asthma, peeling off of wallpapers, rheumatism, mold, respiratory problems, bad odors and much.
Here too, you can either regularly ventilate all the rooms (which is not very possible, especially in winter), or acquire a dehumidifier. Taking the help of the avfuktning stockholm service is essential here.
How Does An Air Dehumidifier Work?
This can vary from one dehumidifier model to another, but generally the basic principle remains the same dehumidifier operation
- Step 1: The device draws moist air from the interior where it is located
- Step 2: The air passes through a filter to get rid of the dust or other impurities it may contain
- Step 3: The moist air, free of its impurities, then passes through an evaporator whose temperature is very low. At low temperatures the air can no longer retain moisture (water vapor), it condenses and becomes liquid. The liquid is collected in a tank.
- Step 4: The purified and dried air comes out of the dehumidifier at the same temperature as when it was sucked.
The Different Types
There are several types of dehumidifier on the market based on user requests.
Moisture Absorbers
Although they are not able to remove the moisture already present inside your home or even the molds already installed, this type of dehumidifier is very suitable to protect you from the effects in the rooms that give off the most. They work thanks to tablets or mineral salts which collect the humidity of the air which they transform then into liquid.
The moisture absorber is also equipped with a water collector, the size of which generally does not exceed one liter. It is for this reason that it is generally recommended for confined spaces or small surfaces that are difficult to ventilate. We still insist that it is suitable for preventing moisture, not curing it.
Electric Dehumidifiers
They are the most suitable for solving your moisture hassles, although they are quite expensive. They are, in fact, very effective in drying the air and repairing your damaged walls and ceilings. Electric dehumidifiers most of the time have a condensation system identical to that which operates the fridges. Their power, however, has the disadvantage of making them quite noisy.
Contrary to what some people may think, they do not consume a lot of space and will not distort your interior. These days we find compact and aesthetic electric dehumidifiers, to satisfy all desires. They also use less energy and offer many smart features that keep them from running continuously, unless you choose otherwise.
Mini Dehumidifiers
They have enjoyed an excellent reputation in recent years because they are simple to use and easily transportable. Small dehumidifiers have a portable format that prevents them from being powerful compared to their elders, which makes them less effective in combating humidity. So don’t expect them to work miracles against your humidity concerns.
