Petite Dehumidifier
Model: GWD200
Attention: This Dehumidifier is rated to extract 250ml per day in an environment of 80%
humidity and temperature of 30°C. This is the world-wide standard for rating
dehumidifiers. In NZ we do not have climatic conditions with this humidity and high
temperature. Accordingly the extraction levels may be lower.
