This is a compressor free dehumidifier which operates without refrigerant.
It has an almost consistent rate of water extraction at all temperatures and
is more efficient than compressor based dehumidifiers when used at low
temperatures below 5°C.
The operation theory exists in the Dehumidify Wheel (a chemically
impregnated rotating wheel). Damp air from the environment is drawn
through the unit where it comes into contact with the wheel. The chemical
on the wheel removes the moisture from the air and warmed by the heating
elements inside.
As the wheel rotates to a different position, the heater drives the water from
the chemical wheel and the water is condensed through heat exchange
system and removed to water tank.
How it works

4
Excess moisture will
travel throughout your
home, For this reason,
the dehumidifier should
be positioned, so that
it can draw this moist
air towards it from
all over the home.
When positioning the
dehumidifier, ensure
that it is placed on a
level surface and that
there is a minimum of
20 cm (8") of space on
either side of the unit
to allow for efficient
airflow. Heater advice
for Dryer function. The
distance between air
vent & clothes must be
kept at least 40cm to
avoid water drop into
machine and cause
damage.
Suitable to use in basement, kitchen, living room etc.
