Dehumidifier
A dehumidifier removes moisture from the air, making your home, workplace, accomodation facility or business more comfortable.
Whether it is to remove moisture from cold, dark basements, or used when a room or area has been flooded by water and needs drying out, dehumidifiers can prevent mould and mildew growth.
Dehumidifiers simply remove moisture or humidity from the air, the opposite of a humidifier which adds moisture to the air.
Humidity is the amount of water vapour or moisture in the air. Warmer air can contain more moisture than cooler air.
Due to the additonal moisture or humidity in the air, you will notice on hot days, you may feel more uncomfortable and warmer than you actually are. The body sweats or perspires, is unable to dry or evaporate the perspiration from the skin, which in turn decreases the ability to maintain body temperature effectively and you tend to feel warmer, body temperature is maintained by sweating and shivering.
Reducing the amount of moisture in the air makes skin perspiration evaportation or drying sweat more efficient, which in turn maintains the body's temeperature and you will notice you will feel much more comfortable, even though the air temeperature stays the same.
The United States Environmental Protection Agency recommends keeping relative humidity between 30% and 60%, with below 50% preferred dust mite control. You will notice less humid air 50% to 55% is more comfortable than 70% to 80% to the skin and your breathing.
If you live in a humid climate such as the eastern seaborad of Australia, dehumidifiers for home may make a big difference for you and your family. Excess moisture and humid air can aggravate not only fatigue and physical strength, but conditions such as what causes asthma, dust mites allergy, arthritis and rheumatism, respiratory disorders such as unable to stop coughing and phlegm in throat, as well as contributing to mould and mildew growth.
Lowering and maintaining the moisture level in the air with dehumidifiers helps protect areas in your home or work place from excessive humidity damage such as mould and mildew growth, rusting of metals, swelling of timber and creaking furntiure joints.

Mould and mildew tend to grow wherever it is damp, dark, poorly ventilated and still or can be found in poorly maintained plumbing spaces and under carpets after flooding or cheap carpet cleaning. Besides basements and under-ground-level areas, kitchens, bathrooms and laundry rooms can be problem areas in many homes. Removing moisture from the air such as steam from showering and cooking in your home, makes it drier and stops mould, mildew and fungus growth.
