Condensation dehumidifiers

Condensation dehumidifiers are ideal for warehousing and storage, substations and data centres, as well as in building and water damage drying, or any industrial and commercial application including water management, and protecting and preserving the value of assets.

Why choose condensation dehumidifiers?

A condensation dehumidifier, also known as a refrigerant dehumidifier, removes excess moisture from the air in any environment. This keeps humidity levels optimal for all people, animals, goods and more within a space.

These industrial and commercial dehumidification units work by drawing humid air across a refrigerated coil. When the air hits this cold surface, it is rapidly cooled below its dew point, causing it to condense. The cool, dry air is reheated by the latent heat energy generated during condensation and returned to the room.

In most settings, relative humidity should be kept below 60%RH to prevent rust, mould and other effects of excess humidity. Furthermore, RH levels between 50% and 60% maintain healthy conditions for people inside buildings.

By extracting water from the air, condensation dehumidifiers help prevent mould growth, limit building damage, and stop humidity levels rising to uncomfortable levels.

Condense units are highly efficient in indoor climates between 10ºC and 32ºC and above 40% relative humidity (RH). This makes our solutions ideal to effectively manage the amount of water in the air in many locations, including:

If the climate you want to dehumidify has drier, colder air, the performance and efficiency of a condensation dehumidifier drops. In these instances, we would recommend looking at our wide range of desiccant or adsorption dehumidifiers.

Wherever there is a need to keep humidity under control, our dehumidifiers deliver exceptional performance with minimal energy consumption. Our decades of experience ensures water damage is restricted across your buildings, and environments are kept comfortable for employees, customers and more.

Robust. Durable. Energy-efficient. Our condensation drying units tackle moisture problems and preserve air quality for companies across Europe, and deliver long-term energy savings for our customers.

Condensation dehumidifiers: Frequently Asked Questions

What is a condensation dehumidifier?

A condensation dehumidifier, also known as a refrigerant dehumidifier, removes excess moisture from the air, keeping humidity in the area at a comfortable, optimal level. This moisture is collected in either a removable container, or can be sent out of the space via a drain hose.

Condense dehumidifiers are commonly used to control humidity levels in a variety of commercial spaces, including industrial facilities, food production, agricultural settings, heritage sites, and in water damage restoration projects.

How does a condensation dehumidifier work?

A condensation dehumidifier works by drawing moisture-laden air across a refrigerated evaporator coil inside the unit. This rapidly cools the air below its dew point, and the condensation is collected. The cooled air is then passed across the condenser where it is reheated and returned to the room at a lower relative humidity.

What are the benefits of using a condensation dehumidifier?

Using a condensation dehumidifier can keep humidity levels in an indoor space at a comfortable, safe level at all times, regardless of the surrounding climate. This can help to:

  • Prevent mould and mildew growth
  • Restore items following water damage
  • Make spaces more comfortable for occupants
  • Improve overall air quality
  • Address odours caused by damp

Condense dehumidifiers also offer several advantages over adsorption dehumidifiers. They are often easier to install and operate, more cost-effective to run, and present a very low risk of “over-drying” an environment.

Learn more about deciding between a condensation dehumidifier and adsorption dehumidifier.

Can a condensation dehumidifier improve the smell of the air?

Yes. By removing excess moisture from the air, a condensation dehumidifier can help to reduce musty odours caused by dampness.

Can a condensation dehumidifier also improve the quality of the air?

If fitted with filters, UV lights or other means of air purification, a condensation dehumidifier can improve air quality by removing pollutants and particles from the air.

By addressing high levels of humidity, these dehumidifiers also make areas more comfortable to inhabit, and remove the excess moisture that allows mould and mildew to grow and spread spores into the air.

Where would you use a condensation dehumidifier?

Condensation dehumidifiers are effective for a wide range of residential and commercial settings and applications. These include:

  • Water damage restoration
  • Construction drying
  • Preservation of products and archives
  • Data centres
  • Laundry drying
  • Food production
  • Swimming pools
  • Waterworks
  • Cellars
  • Heritage sites and listed buildings
  • Museums and galleries

Are condensation dehumidifiers energy efficient?

Condensation dehumidifiers are more energy efficient than adsorption models in higher temperatures.

However, how efficient a dehumidifier is will depend on how the unit is manufactured and the components used. Ideally, you want to prioritise dehumidifiers that use EC fans and MID-compliant energy meters, and can effectively recover heat energy as part of the condensation process.

Speak to our experts about the efficiency of our condensation dehumidifiers.

How do I choose the right size condensation dehumidifier for my space?

Calculating the correct size of a condensation dehumidifier can be a challenge, and will be influenced by numerous factors, such as:

  • Meteorological data
  • Room size
  • Air change requirements
  • People in the area
  • Products in the area
  • Type and age of building materials

Our bespoke, expert-driven consultations ensure that you are always advised on the ideal-sized dehumidifier for your requirements. Get in touch with our team today and let’s get started.

What are the best condensation dehumidifiers for commercial use?

The best condensation dehumidifier will vary depending on your intended application, the environment they will be used in, and the climate you want to maintain.
