Product Information

This large Vonhaus 20L Dehumidifiercan help keep the humidity at around 55 – 65% even in a large conservatory. The water tank can be removed from the front of the machine. If you forget to replace the tank, an alarm sounds for approximately 10 seconds. While it’s great that the tank can be removed without moving the unit, it can be difficult to empty without spilling. Portability

If you are anything like me, then you don’t enjoy having to empty the tank every now and then. For something that clears an astounding 18 litres of water a day, the storage tank is relatively small. But you also get the welcome option of using a hose to continually drain the water. This will save you dozens of trips to the sink every now and then.Once turn on one of 3 coloured lights will appear indicating the current ambient humidity in your environment. Coloured indicators for your ambient humidity;

A lot of dehumidifiers, even those with large litre-per-day capacities, have water collection tanks of 6 L or less, so don’t be put off by those smaller numbers. Desiccant or Compressor Dehumidifier This style of dehumidifier works better in warm environments because it requires the internal temperature of the dehumidifier to be lower than the surrounding air. If temperatures are below 15°C, a desiccant dehumidifier will be a better choice. Compressor humidifiers don’t raise the temperature as much as desiccant dehumidifiers, so in hot environments where you don’t want more heat, a compressor dehumidifier will be more desirable.Manage controlled sessions too with the convenient 2 and 4 hour timer function. Extracting moisture in the home reduces humidity levels, protects properties, possessions and improves well being. Capable of extracting up to max 18 Litres of water per day and collectable via a large internal tank (or by continuous drainage, where a hose is also included). The Electriq uses very little energy (180 watts) and comes with an air purifier function replete with plasma ionizer and UV sterilisation for extra air-cleaning pizzazz. According to Electriq it also ‘dries laundry more efficiently than a tumble dryer’. We’re not convinced it was better than our Bosch tumbler but it did dry a pair of jeans in about 90 minutes, so that’s okay. Although relatively heavy, there are wheels in place to make this dehumidifier easier to move around. It also has a handle for carrying. In operation, the Inventor does emit a slight hum from the fan although it’s nothing to get too worked up about. There’s built-in air filtration though along with an automatic shut-off function just in case the tank gets full and you’re not around to empty it. The other boon with this machine is that it is reasonably lightweight at 11.4kg, which means you can easily move it to other rooms as and when it’s needed.
