Desiccant dehumidifiers are ideal both at standard and low temperatures, working in an ambient temperature range of between 5-35°C. The DESD8LW-V2 is light and easy to move, as it does not contain a heavy compressor. It also works intelligently as it is designed to extract unwanted humidity while saving money due to its advanced power-saving logic.

Do not use outdoors. Your electriQ dehumidifier will begin to protect your space from the harmful effects of excessive moisture as soon as it is turned on. Excess moisture is dispersed throughout your home. For this reason, the dehumidifier should be positioned in a central and clear location so that it can draw this moist air towards it from all over the home.
