DOROSIN 170 Pint Dehumidifier Features & Benefits
Portable Industrial / Damp surfaces / Dry surfaces
Portable dehumidifiers are stand-alone dehumidifiers. They are not attached or mounted to the wall. They can be easily moved. They could be lightweight and easy to carry or come with a handle and wheels to move them around.
Working on a table that is always damp can be uncomfortable. So is sitting on furniture that is sticky because of dampness.
The solution to removing dampness all around is using a dehumidifier. When the indoor environment is dry, your furniture will stay dry, too.
24 Hour Operation / Musty odor / Fresh Air
It is possible to run dehumidifiers for 24 hours with an auto-shutoff and auto-restart.
It is not comfortable to live when you can smell mustiness all around. Excess moisture in the air makes all surfaces damp. Over time, the walls and woodwork absorb the dampness and emanate a foul odor making it difficult to breathe freely.
Keeping the air dry will prevent dampness in homes. With the dampness gone, there is no room for the moisture to stick to surfaces in the home and no musty odor either.
Auto Off / Allergy triggers / Allergy prevention
Dehumidifiers come with an auto-off control feature that switches the dehumidifier off when the humidity level reaches the set limit or the water tank is full.
Dust mites are a type of allergen that can trigger asthma attacks. If you are already suffering from asthma, your condition could get worse. Those that do not have a history of asthma may develop an asthmatic condition if they are exposed to dust mites in the air.
Dehumidifiers to bring the humidity level to less than 50% are ideal for removing dust mites from your home.
Defrost / Fatigue / Energetic
To safeguard the dehumidifier and allow it to extract more water from the air, the ice on the evaporator coil must be allowed to melt. This is referred to as “auto-defrost,” and the presence of a defrost light on the dehumidifier indicates that the defrosting cycle has begun.
One of the reasons for feeling fatigued is dehydration. Another is discomfort in a humid environment. Living in a space that has high humidity makes you feel sticky and uncomfortable. A sound sleep becomes impossible and in a few days, the lack of sleep and stickiness depletes you of energy leaving you exhausted.
Installing a dehumidifier can ensure that the air indoors is cool and dry. Sleeping through the night in such comfort can make you feel energised through the day.
Portable / Damage to brickwork and walls / Normal and useful
Portable dehumidifiers are stand-alone dehumidifiers. They are not attached or mounted to the wall. They can be easily moved. They could be lightweight and easy to carry or come with a handle and wheels to move them around.
The barriers of vapor or air are usually inbuilt in the brickwork. But, they do not completely prevent the outside air from seeping in. High humidity can also cause moisture to seep into the foundation, crawl spaces, basements, damaging the structure. Differing moisture levels in the plaster, studs, or joists will make the material contract or swell, creating cracks and potentially damaging the entire structure.
Keeping the air inside under control can be done with a dehumidifier. Making sure the structure is sound can be done with regular checks and by ensuring that outside humidity levels have no way of entering your homes.
Reliable / Water stains / Clean surfaces
Dehumidifiers with an auto-restart or auto-shutoff feature are seen as reliable because they work when they are supposed to. Even if you are not there to manually switch it on and off, your humidity issues are taken care of.
Constant exposure to moisture in the air can leave water stains in patches on walls and ceilings. Newly painted walls can take on the look of a bad paint job causing a great deal of unhappiness to the home owners.
One way to prevent water stains is to keep the indoor humidity level lower than 50%. Using a dehumidifier is the solution. This keeps the walls also dry and allows for zero formation of water stains.
