Bought this the last time it was on offer. Does a great job, but water tank resonates and makes a right din. Had to stick tape on it to reduce the vibrations.

Got one last year also, and very pleased with it. Can rattle as above comments, but a little piece of rubber below the water tank fixed that.
Bargain!

think it must be compressor as label on back says; pressure (suction) 1.2MPa (discharge) 2.4MPa.
I bought this two years ago on offer, it's been brilliant for my old, damp house, drying plaster, flood clear up etc

Is this a compressor or dessicant type? Not being lazy, can find no reference to which type it is in the info...

Use this in my uni room. I'm always surprised my the amount of water it collects. Rooms feels a lot dryer too!

Can anyone tell me if this is the one it shows when you click 'video' on that page? That seems to say 16 litres per day and it looks a bit more 'flashy' if you see what I mean.
At the end of the video it shows the two different models. The one shown is the more expensive one here.

couple of questions... 1. are these expensive to run? 2. would these work in a garage to remove condensation (that eventually drips and forms puddles). thanks

180 watts per hour or approximately 3p per hour
This is very economical and very efficient, depends on the size of your garage.

Wouldn't do a good job in a garage. Compressor type dehumidifiers are very inneficient in cold environments (such as a garage). You are much better off patching up your garage and improving ventilation (vents placed at opposing walls)
What they don't tell you in the specs for daily water collection is that they would have done their tests in 30°C at 80 or 90% humidity. Relevant if you live in a jungle hut I suppose.

We use one to speed up drying clothes indoors during the winter, works fine and prevents mound if you use radiators to dry clothes indoors

Is this quiet? It varies depending on the slight movement of the dehumidifier, if it gets noisy (sometimes happens) even moving it just 1 cm can reduce the noise again back down. Great machine and wouldnt be without out, removes moisture in every room of the house. Room only gets warm when this is switched on all day. Cant believe how much water collects in it.

Does anyone know the minimum working temperature for this unit? Need a dehumidifier for my garage but worried about the operating temperature range.
Its actually smaller but draws more moisture is upto 16 Ltr a day but holding tank is 2.4 Ltr
as opposed to this which does upto 12 Ltr a day with 4 Ltr Tank
no issue if you are connecting to a hosepipe and a bucket or straight to outside lol
but thought Id clarify as I was about to buy that but then realised as I am not goint to connect mine to an outlet and relying on the tank

Where is best to place this and when to run it as I'm getting bad condensation in two of my bedrooms during winter which is causing mould overtime. Thanks
bc111 to millward84
18 Jan 171#50
you will have to take it room by room unless of course you buy two :disappointed: put in a room and close the door it will soon draw the moisture out, kept it going as long as there is water in the dehumidfier.

Thanks never used one so have purchased. I seem to wake up to excess moisture in two of bedrooms on the windows this time of year. Hopefully it solves it

Can anyone tell me how long I should leave it running ?. Do I leave it until there is no water draining into the tank and does that mean the room is now dehumidified ? Thanks for any help.
bc111 to nightscentedstock
22 Jan 171#53
Hi If there is no moisture turning into water then its done its job for now, but if moisture returns to the room start again, some people during the winter months just turn it on now and again if they have persistent problems, otherwise well done on a fine job :smiley:

My house is so damp and getting worse, I can have this on all day long without a problem every day, moving it from room to room when necessary. I only switch it off at nighttime as dont want to hear the noise.

I turn mine on, only when freezing outside (our house is very insulated and warm, but as a result, not very well ventilated!) as a result all the moisture gets attracted to the cold surfaces (windows, toilet cistern and porch walls) where it collects and does turn to mould.
I turn it on and leave it running all night, and it does the job. The one I have (sorry cant remember the model, it was £150) dehumidify the whole house, as long as you leave all doors open, it has different economical settings, depending on the amount of moisture around (e.g cooking/washing)

For those looking to put in a garage, I have a de-humidfier in mine. As a result it tends to pick up a load of dust and rubbish out of the air and occasionally I have to blow it through to clean the rubbish off of the coils.. I like to collect the water for use in the car rad so I like the water to be clean as pos. When this one finally fails, I'll be looking to replace it with one with a dust filter.

23 Jan 171#59
This does have a dust filter in it as well, only emptied mine once in a year.

Currently looking for a cheap one for my son (we have a dessicant EcoAir and love it!). It will be primarily for use in a cold conservatory so am I right in assuming this compressor one won't be as efficient as a dessicant one in low temperatures? I understand compressor ones are cheaper to run (as well as buy lol) but I don't want to recommend one that won't do the job...
semo to bellboys
23 Jan 17#64
If you measure the real life water collection rate in liters collected for money spent for electricity, I'm pretty sure you will find that dessicant DHs are more efficient. When I got mine, I had to return a compressor one due to a small leak. I replaced it with a dessicant one which collected more water but it also draws more power (so it uses energy quicker but uses the same amount of energy or less to collect as much water as a compressor one)
I wouldn't call dehumidifiers cheap. Is it cheaper to run one instead of opening a window? Probably not if you are on mains gas. If it is humid outside as well then obviously a dehumidifier will be "cheaper"

Decided to go for the next one up @£99.99
I had a code through the post today which doesn't appear unique. It's for 15% off NYBV2 , I couldn't get it to work online so called and got it applied over the phone.
Worth a go.

If anyone has a particularly damp house, instead of a dehumidifier it might be worth considering a nuaire Drimaster, a different sort of solution but the reviews I've been reading say it is a lot more effective as a household solution.

Can somebody advice me as to which one should i go for...a compressor or dessicant . I am looking for drying laundry indoor in a two bedroom flat . I will use it at night because i have economy seven meter...so something which is really quiet and preferably has timer. Will really appreciate if someone can guide me for this.
Thanx in advance.

I've used both types, go for the screwfix £99.99 one. It's very quiet, more refined than the £79.99 one. Great settings as you can set the target humidity (50, 60, 70%) to save power.

25 Jan 17#69
Think I might send mine back and get the £99 one then. Is it definitely worth the extra cheers
