Did you know that it is important to keep a close eye on the humidity in your home? Especially in the humid autumn and winter months, it can quickly become damp in the house. We take the wetness from outside in our wet raincoats, but also like to keep the windows closed because of the cold. Too much moisture in the house is not good for air quality and quickly spoils your enjoyment of living. Moisture problems are not only detrimental to your home and interiors, but also to your own health. The solution? A Qlima dehumidifier!

The ideal humidity in a room is between 40% and 60%. How do you know if your home meets this? Qlima's electric dehumidifiers have a built-in hygrometer. This measures the air humidity. When the humidity is above your desired level, you put the dehumidifier to work. A dehumidifier draws excess water from the air and collects it in a tank.  Is the water tank full? Emptying it is a piece of cake. You can also opt for a dehumidifier with drain, which takes over this task from you

Not every dehumidifier works the same and is therefore suitable for your damp room. That is why it is good to look into the specifications. It is important to consider the following qualities if you want the best dehumidifier for your purpose:

Size of room

In small rooms, you obviously need a less powerful dehumidifier than in large rooms. And then it is also nice that it takes up little space, like the Qlima D 720 Cube. For each dehumidifier, it is stated up to how many cubic or square metres it is suitable. Looking for a universal dehumidifier? We recommend the D 812 Smart!

Warm or cold environment

Do you want to dehumidify the hot area in your drying rack laundry room or rather that cool, humid basement? You need different devices for this, namely an adsorption dehumidifier or a condensation dehumidifier. Our tip for a dehumidifier for cool rooms? Check out the DD 208 or DD 808.  Read our blog on dehumidifiers for different moisture problems.

Water tank capacity

Do you want the dehumidifier to work for hours without having to empty the tank? Or is it in a large room and needs to filter a lot of moisture from the air? Then the size of the water tank is important. For extra-large rooms, you might consider the D 825 PA Smart, for example.

Air purification option

Besides dehumidification, there are also appliances that can purify the air, for example the Qlima D 820 A Smart. This comes in handy if, for example, you are allergic to certain substances or benefit from extra clean air. Do you have pets or airway complaints? Then we recommend paying extra attention to this when picking out a dehumidifier. All Qlima dehumidifiers have one or more filters. Most have a mesh filter for the coarser particles. In addition, several models have an activated carbon filter against unpleasant odours and a HAF filter against dust.

Pump or no pump

There are dehumidifiers with a pump function, such as the D 825 PA Smart. If the dehumidifier is positioned lower than the water discharge point, the collected water must be transported upwards. The built-in pump makes this happen automatically.

You can use a dehumidifier anywhere in your home. Most people use a dehumidifier in the living room, bedroom or bathroom. But did you know that your laundry on the drying rack also dries faster with a dehumidifier nearby? Depending on where you want to use the dehumidifier, check the specifications that are important to you. For example, you might want an extra quiet dehumidifier for your bedroom, or an extra large water tank for the bathroom. If you put your dehumidifier in the cool basement where you are not often, then it is especially important that the device works well in colder rooms. In short, before buying the dehumidifier, think about what you will use it for most.

At Qlima we have several models of dehumidifiers, so chances are your ideal device is among them. View all devices above and check the unique specifications per dehumidifier. The ultimate humidity in your home is closer than you think!
