For refrigerant dehumidifiers, manufacturers frequently base their claims on 30ºC and 80% relative humidity – conditions that better represent a tropical rainforest than a typical British home. When I put the heater on, it gets warm very quickly, but, as soon as I turn the heater off, the room cools down really quickly. Featuring innovative 2-in-1 refill tab technology, the moisture absorber not only reduces excess moisture but also neutralises odours. Thanks to its 360° air circulation, the UniBond AERO 360° dehumidifier and odour neutraliser effectively absorbs moisture to help create a comfortable indoor climate and prevent common damp problems such as condensation, mould and musty smells. If available, make use of timer or automatic shut-off features so the dehumidifier isn’t running continuously while you’re out of the house or asleep.

It’s tempting to keep your windows shut tight in winter, but then condensation has no means of escape. This way you ensure that if a spillage should occur, your nice carpet won’t get any blue goop on it. A humidistat monitors moisture levels in the air and adjusts the dehumidifier to maintain the humidity level you’ve selected.

This product is also great as a preventative measure against mould and damp before it has even occurred. Look for the crossed-out wheelie bin symbol on your dehumidifier, as this is an indicator that it can be recycled. This allows you to specify a relative humidity (RH) that you want the dehumidifier to try to create in the room.
