Adsorption otherwise known as desiccant dehumidifiers are available as compact portable units, up to commercial, industrial and building grade climate control solutions. On any scale our high-performance adsorption dehumidifiers offer effective dehumidification of large spaces making them suitable for any purpose, including water damage restoration, storage and preservation. Discover our range and speak to our experts for more information.
Adsorption dehumidifiers, otherwise known as desiccant dehumidifiers, are one of two commonly used types of systems able to efficiently dry and process indoor air. While both these and condensation units are designed for the same outcome – dry air flow – they approach this process differently and are best suited to different environments.
Adsorption dehumidifiers can operate efficiently and effectively in cool environments between -10°C and +10°C, such as water damage restoration projects, pharmaceutical plants and archives.
Condense or condensation dehumidifiers, on the other hand, operate as energy efficiently as possible in warmer environments between 10°C and 32°C, including data centres, construction sites and swimming pools.
Beyond their applications, adsorption and desiccant dehumidifiers also differ in how they operate. You can view our full range of commercial and industrial dehumidifiers here.
To produce a dry air stream, industrial adsorption dehumidifiers first draw in process air. Once ducted inside the machine, a revolving desiccant wheel loaded with an adsorbent material, such as silica gel, works to capture water vapour from the atmosphere. Once saturated with water, the integral drying agent is then heated, draining water from the material out of the machine. The air outlet then emits a stream of dry air.
This differs from condensation dehumidifiers, which control humidity levels by cooling humid air to its dew point. As water vapour condenses into droplets, dry air flow is emitted and unwanted moisture is drained away.
By harnessing the natural process of desiccation, adsorption dry air solutions are exceptionally good at keeping humidity levels within desired parameters while also keeping energy consumption low.

Adsorption dehumidifiers are a type of unit able to dry indoor spaces. To do this, damp air is drawn into the machine. Desiccant materials housed within the unit then capture this moisture, and drain it out of the system by blowing hot air over the desiccant. The hot, moist air is then exhausted out of the space and dry air is pushed back into the room, helping control humidity levels.
Adsorption dehumidifiers are an effective way of controlling indoor humidity levels, as this type of dryer can achieve a relative humidity as low as 5%. They are also highly versatile, able to work efficiently between -10°C and +10°C, and can be ducted to dry multiple rooms at once.
No. Adsorption dehumidifiers extract moisture from the air without lowering the temperature. If this is something you are interested in, consider exploring our extensive range of air cooling solutions.
Adsorption dehumidifiers and compressor-based dryers, commonly referred to as condense dehumidifiers, have different strengths and weaknesses. This makes each type of unit ideal for specific types of applications.
For drying out water damaged property, or preserving the ideal climate inside of cellars, adsorption technology is often the unit of choice. This is because these systems operate efficiently in cool environments, and can dry spaces to a very low relative humidity.
Condense dehumidifiers, on the other hand, are better suited to warmer spaces where the humidity level needs to be maintained at 40% or more. This makes them ideal for archives, laundry drying and certain food manufacturing processes.
When excess moisture threatens the integrity of a building, the health of its occupants, or specific processes within, an adsorption dehumidifier is an essential component in maintaining ideal conditions inside.
Whether drying water damaged property, or preserving foodstuffs, these types of dryers are designed to remove large amounts of moisture efficiently and effectively in cool environments. This makes adsorption dehumidifiers good at:
Yes. Adsorption dehumidifier and desiccant dehumidifier are both terms that refer to the same type of drying system.
Selecting the right sized dehumidifier is crucial. Not only can it impact the effectiveness of the equipment, it can also influence how energy efficient a solution is in practice.
To determine what capacity dryer would perform best for you, it is important to carefully consider factors, such as:
To guide you through this process, speak to one of our experts. With more than six decades of climate control experience, we can direct you toward the right solution, and put you in touch with your nearest supplier.
Depending on the needs of your space, the amount of moisture in your room, and the size of your environment, the adsorption dehumidifier best suited to your space will vary.
