A

ir naturally contains a certain amount of water in the form of water vapour and this

determines its humidity level. However, the capacity of air to retain water vapour is limited and

depends on the temperature. The higher the temperature, the greater the quantity of water

vapour the air can retain.

The absolute humidity (A.H.)

value indicates the quantity of water

vapour contained in 1 kg of air and is expressed in grams.

The relative humidity (R.H.)

value

represents the actual quantity of water contained in 1 kg of air expressed as a percentage of

the maximum quantity which can be contained under the same environmental conditions.

In other words, the air in a room at a certain temperature could be considered as a container

with a capacity of, say, 10 litres. If this container were half filled with water, it would be 50% full

(relative humidity) and contain 5 litres of water (absolute humidity). When the container is

completely full, it is described as “saturated”, in other words, there is a relative humidity of 100%,

and in this situation water start condensing (e.g. becoming water), creating damages to walls

and furniture.

Experts have established that the optimum relative humidity for our organism and to preserve

furniture and other objects varies between 45% and 60%. Ideally, rooms should therefore be

kept within these values.

A dehumidifier is an appliance that eliminates the excess of moisture on the air (see below).

There is another way to decrease the relative humidity level. It is by increasing the room
temperature. Increasing the temperature is equivalent to increasing the capacity of the
container. When the air is at a temperature of 20˚C, it is the equivalent of a 10 litre container,
while at 30˚C it is the equivalent of a 20 litre container. (see below).

Of course, just increasing the room temperature is not the solution to your excess
moisture/condensation problem. Just warming the air means that you keep the moisture
suspended in the air as vapour, but when the temperature drops, the water vapour forms
condensation again.
However, heating combined with dehumidification (as in the combined mode) especially at
low temperatures- e.g. below 100C, or when drying washing is very useful. It changes
condensation into water vapour , which can then be collected by the dehumidifier, in a fast
and effective way.
Dehumidifiers are the only real answer to controlling condensation and damp in the home.

T his new dehumidifier is a combined function appliance (dehumidifying and heating) able to quickly and efficiently reduce the relative humidity in a room. Its combined function is particularly suitable for obtaining a rapid effect at low temperatures (below 10˚C). In these conditions, the heater ev...
