Choosing the right size dehumidifier is important. If the unit is too small it will run constantly and struggle. If it is too large you will spend more than you need to.
Small rooms or flats
Ten to twelve litre models are suitable for bedrooms, small living rooms and flats.
Medium homes
Families in two or three bedroom homes should look at models between twelve and twenty litres. These handle daily moisture from cooking, showers and laundry.
Larger properties
Twenty litre units are the most common choice for houses with three or four bedrooms. They remove moisture quickly and normally have the best energy efficiency.
Cold rooms, garages or garden offices
Desiccant dehumidifiers work best because they perform well even in low temperatures. Below you will find some models that work well for typical UK homes.
