The dehumidifier FDH-20E by Finlux has the capacity to absorb 20 liters of water within 24 hours. It is suitable for open spaces up to 80m², maintaining the humidity levels at normal levels. This means it creates conditions for more "comfortable" air, while removing natural and visible signs of humidity, such as mold on walls or condensation in the form of water droplets on windows. It also helps prevent conditions caused by high humidity, such as allergies and asthma.
Using the dehumidifier in a space during the winter months increases the room temperature by up to 3°C, resulting in reduced heating costs, thus saving money.
The ideal average relative humidity of a space ranges between 50% - 55%. At this level, most of us feel comfortable, and it is also the ideal environment to avoid allergies, frequent colds, and bone pains. At the same time, an average humidity of this range helps protect and maintain materials inside the house, such as drywall, walls, and wooden floors - furniture, while protecting clothes in closets and other items or materials that are prone to the harmful effects of excessive humidity.
It features a removable water tank with a capacity of 2 liters, which for the smooth operation of the device must be emptied regularly, and occasionally cleaned with soap and water to prevent mold formation. Also, the water collected in the dehumidifier's tank is deionized and can be used for purposes where we do not want water with salts, such as in car windshield wipers. However, be careful, it is not pure enough to come into contact with clean clothes, so it is not recommended for use in steam irons.
The dehumidification technology of the device, i.e., the way the dehumidifier absorbs moisture from a space, is based on a compressor that condenses the moisture from the air and directs it in the form of water into the tank. Compressor dehumidifiers are more effective at absorbing moisture for heated spaces compared to zeolite dehumidifiers. Therefore, it is recommended for spaces where the temperature does not drop below 13-14°C.
The special clothes drying program provides quick drying, without accumulating moisture from damp clothes in your space, as all the moisture will end up in the dehumidifier's water tank. Simply place the drying rack with the clothes in a (preferably small) room with the door closed, and the dehumidifier near the clothes and select the clothes drying function.
It includes a timer, which helps you schedule its operating hours and automatically turn it on/off at the time you have set. This way, energy costs are reduced, thus saving energy and money.
