If you pour cold water into a cup, the air around it becomes
cold, causing water droplets to form on the surface of the cup.
The dehumidifier takes advantage of this phenomenon to
remove moisture from the air.
1
The unit draws air from the room, cools it with its cooling
coil, causing the moisture to transform into water droplets.
2 The water droplets fall into the water tank.
